Dr Philippa Kaye, a doctor for ITV UK's This Morning programme, spoke about the signs and risk factors of prostate cancer. At the same time, she said that people who "departure" more often may have a lower risk of this cancer, according to the Express daily (UK).
Prostate Cancer UK says some cases of prostate cancer grow so slowly that it doesn't cause any symptoms, but in many cases it grows quickly and metastasizes.
There are a number of risk factors and habits that can help reduce the risk of prostate cancer, says Dr.
“There is evidence that the more 'departures', the lower the risk of prostate cancer. Although there are mixed studies," said Dr.
Harvard Health explains: "Since the prostate is the organ that produces semen, researchers have long wondered whether sexual factors influence risk. male prostate cancer or not.
To answer this question, an 18-year Harvard study of nearly 30,000 medical professionals determined that the risk of prostate cancer was reduced by 20% in men who ejaculated 21 times a month. , compared to those who ejaculated four to seven times a month, according to Express.
The Mayo Clinic (USA) says some studies also show that men with a higher frequency of ejaculation may have a lower risk of prostate cancer, but not much lower.
"It's really important for you to know what those symptoms are, and whether you're at higher risk," says Dr.
Prostate Cancer UK says that early stage prostate cancer usually doesn't cause any symptoms. That's why men need to be aware of their risk.
