La masturbación reduce el riesgo de cáncer de próstata cuenta BBC News. Unos investigadores australianos entrevistaron a más de mil hombres que habían desarrollado cáncer de próstata y a 1.250 que no:
They found those who had ejaculated the most between the ages of 20 and 50 were the least likely to develop the cancer.
The protective effect was greatest while the men were in their 20s.
Men who ejaculated more than five times a week were a third less likely to develop prostate cancer later in life.
Y por cierto:
They say cancer-causing chemicals could build up in the prostate if men do not ejaculate regularly.
And they say sexual intercourse may not have the same protective effect because of the possibility of contracting a sexually transmitted infection, which could increase men’s cancer risk.
Como comentan por ahí, habrá que ver la campaña de información pública.
