According to a new study, men who ejaculate frequently (at least 21 times a month) have a lower risk of being diagnosed with prostate cancer.
The findings were made by scientists at the Health Professionals Follow-Up Study, a major U.S. prospective cohort.

They followed tens of thousands of men and collected self-reported data on how often they ejaculated (through intercourse, masturbation, nocturnal emission) at different life stages.
In that study,men who reported ejaculating 21 or more per month had a statistically lower risk of prostate cancer than those who averaged 4 to 7 ejaculations per month.

Additional studies, including from Australia, observed similar trends: more frequent ejaculation in younger adulthood appeared associated with lower prostate cancer later in life.
Other studies also found that by ejaculating often, the prostate’s ducts may flush out harmful substances or carcinogens that might accumulate.

Again, frequent release might alter metabolic pathways or reduce the formation of prostatic intraluminal crystals — both implicated in cancer initiation.
Last but not least, frequent sexual activity may be a marker of better overall health, lower stress, or healthier lifestyles, all of which also reduce cancer risk.

Medical and urology experts generally describe the findings as “intriguing but inconclusive.” They claim ejaculating 21 times/month will guarantee prostate protection.
Men should continue with recommended screenings and lifestyle measures, not rely solely on sexual frequency.
