That's silly! Lol. Seriously, that's wrong. I used to think that masturbation was bad, because I heard from my friends that it causes acne. I got up the courage to ask my doctor this when I was getting my yearly physical. She told me it was a lie, and that masturbation only has good effects, not bad effects. It prevents random, unwanted erections during the day, and wet dreams during the night, she even said that some scientists say it prevents prostate cancer! She told me it's completely normal to do, but I should never let it take over my life. She said she only recommends masturbating up to 5 times a day, max. More than that may cause addiction. So you see, masturbation can't cause any type of cancer, so you can go back to jerkin off. =D

There is a vague suggestion medically, difficult to prove, that regular semen discharge may actually decrease the risk. I found an Australian paper where they found those who had ejaculated the most between the ages of 20 and 50 were the least likely to develop the cancer.
Some older research however suggested the opposite, that a high number of sexual partners or a high level of sexual activity increased a man's risk of developing prostate cancer by up to 40%.

Some one has miss understood the latest research. Masturbation will decrease your chances of getting prostate cancer. If a man from puberty (12 ) to death ejaculates 3 to 5 times a week he will have a better chance of not having prostate problems.

No mastubation does not increase your chance of developing prostate cancer. It actually reduces your chances of developing prostate cancer.

Studies show that sex whether solo or with a partner is beneficial for prostate health. Many sources feel that sex 4 times a week or more may be key in preventing prostate cancer. Who would tell you otherwise? I hope it wasn't your parents. All this misinformation in the year 2007. It's scary.

The opposite is true-it REDUCES the risk. The prostate is a gland-glands are made to secrete, and it is really tough on glands when they secrete and there is nowhere for it to go. There is quite of bit of info on this on the web. It also helps reduce the chances of having an enlarged prostate when you get older.

It is not true at all. In fact, there has been some scientific evidence that it may - I emphasize the word "may ' - help prevent prostate cancer. More research is called for.

No you will no longer get prostate maximum cancers, once you're under 30 your libido and sexual urges are very extreme. in case you do no longer launch those urges (self gratification) you would be warm headed and irritable. by way of fact of this it incredibly is powerful to masturbate and launch the stress in the previous you get into combat and harm your self or others by way of fact of an hassle-free underlying reason "disadvantaged sexual urges". So bypass on and do it, its familiar!

Quiet the opposite. It flushes out fluiids developed ther so if any malignancies form there they are gone before the turn to cancer.
