Regular orgasms can reduce the risk of prostate cancer, a study has found.
Men who ejaculate more regularly throughout their lives lower their risk of the disease.
The researchers, from Harvard Medical School, did not explain why orgasms could lower prostate cancer risk.
However it has previously been theorised that regular orgasms may flush out cancer-causing chemicals in the prostate.
Another theory is that if sperm is regularly cleaned out to allow new cells to develop, it helps stop the build-up of old cells that might be more likely to turn cancerous.
The prostate is a small satsuma-sized gland located between a man’s penis and his bladder, whose main function is to produce a thick white fluid that is mixed with the sperm produced by the testicles, to create semen.
The new study is the largest to date on the frequency of ejaculation and and prostate cancer.
The researchers found that men in the 40-49 age bracket who ejaculate 21 or more times a month reduced their risk of prostate cancer by 22 per cent.
This was compared to men who ejaculate four to seven times a month
While the researchers said they were unclear as to why ejaculation lowers the chances of prostate cancer, they called the results ‘particularly encouraging.’
The study followed almost 32,000 healthy men for 18 years, 3,839 of whom later were diagnosed with prostate cancer.
Men were asked about their average monthly frequency of ejaculation between the ages of 20 to 29, 40 to 49, and in 1991, the year prior to the questionnaire.
They found that the more frequently a man ejaculated throughout his life, the lower his risk of prostate cancer at all three of these points in time.
This was the case even when they adjusted their results to take factors such as diet, lifestyle and a history of prostate cancer screening into account.
Dr Jennifer Rider, of Harvard Medical School and Brigham and Women’s Hospital, said the results are ‘particularly encouraging’ but should be interpreted with caution.
She said: ‘While these data are the most compelling to date on the potential benefit of ejaculation on prostate cancer development, they are observational data and should be interpreted somewhat cautiously.
‘At the same time, given the lack of modifiable risk factors for prostate cancer, the results of this study are particularly encouraging.’
She added more research should be carried out into the specific changes in the prostate caused by ejaculation, to understand how it reduces the risk of prostate cancer.
The research was presented at the American Urological Society annual meeting in New Orleans in May.
More than 1.1 million cases of prostate cancer were recorded in 2012, accounting for around 8 per cent of all new cancer cases and 15 per cent in men, according to figures from the World Cancer Research Fund International.
The causes of prostate cancer are largely unknown, but the chances of developing the disease increase as a man gets older.

The Nigerian army has relocated at least 260 women and children recently rescued from the militant Islamist group Boko Haram, officials say.
They were taken from a camp in the north-eastern city of Yola and flown to an unspecified military facility.
The women will receive medical help and support as part of their rehabilitation process, the BBC has learnt.
The government is said to be worried that some women may have been radicalised while in captivity.
Camp officials said there were suspicions some of the women had been communicating with militants.
They will be housed at the military facility under the Countering Violent Extremism (CVE) Programme which is part of the government’s so-called “soft approach” to combating terrorism.
Backed by soldiers from Chad, Cameroon and Niger, the Nigerian army has managed to liberate a number of towns from the militants since they launched a military operation in February.
However, sporadic attacks and violence have continued, with thousands killed in the last year alone. BBC

The police were tipped off by locals who suspected something horrific was taking place inside the kitchen.
They raided the hotel restaurant to discover human heads which were still dripping with blood in plastic bags.
A local priest who ate at the restaurant – in the south-eastern province of Anambra – was alarmed at the price of meals there, let alone where the meat came from,BBC Swahili reported.
He was presented with a bill of 700 Naira – around £2.20 – when the daily wage for tens of millions of Nigerians is approximately 60p.
The priest said: ‘The attendant noticed my reaction and told me it was the small piece of meat I had eaten that made the bill scale that high.
‘I did not know I had been served with human meat, and that it was that expensive.’
The police also found a terrifying arsenal of weapons which included grenades when they raided the restaurant. Ten people were arrested in connection to the crimes.
One resident said: ‘I am not surprised at the shocking revelation… Every time I went to the market, I observed strange activities going on in the hotel.
‘People who were never cleanly dressed and who looked a bit strange made their way in and out of the hotel, making me very suspicious of their activities

One Mohammed Snu, suspected to be gay, was killed by his alleged partner, Mohammed Umar, in a hotel room in Garki, Abuja.
According to Punch, the crime was carried out last Thursday, December 4, as the assaulter stabbed the victim multiple times in the ribs with a screw driver.
It is reported that Snu used to be a regular guest at the hotel and on the fateful day invited Umar for sexual intercourse. However, the situation turned violent when the victim refused to pay for the second round of sex.
A source from the hotel disclosed that the two had sex twice, but Snu did not want to pay for the second time, which caused an argument and a fight.
The source, who pleaded for anonymity, narrated how the body of the victim was discovered.
“The man had just come back from a mosque where he went for prayers with his partner when we heard a loud noise from his room and a voice saying ‘ya kuri (please, don’t be angry)’. By the time we forced the door open, we saw Umar standing naked and Snu lying dead on the bed with stab injuries on his body. We immediately called the police and Umar was arrested.”
The police led the hotel manager to the station for interrogation over the incident, which generated an uproar among the residents who gathered to discuss the murder.

The FCT Police Public Relations Officer, Peter Okechukwu, confirmed the incident, having provided however a bit different version of the tragedy. According to him, Snu complained of pain in the ribs and invited Umar to the room.
“In the course of the massage, Snu asked Umar to undress for sex, and from there, they engaged in a scuffle leading to the stabbing of the deceased by the suspect. It was the loud noise from their room that attracted the hotel workers.
“When our men got to the hotel, we found the deceased and the suspect naked. Investigations have commenced and we will soon know what actually transpired behind the closed door.”
It would be recalled that homosexual relations themselves became a crime in Nigeria, when in the beginning of this year President Goodluck Jonathan signed the anti-gay bill, which stipulates 14-year punishment for the violators.
Watu nchini Marekani wameelezea ghadhabu na hasira zao kwenye mitandao ya kijamii kufuatia utafiti wa mtaalamu wa wanyamapori Paul Roslie kumezwa na Nyoka aina ya Anaconda ili ku chunguza maumbile ya ndani ya Nyoka huyo.
Lengo la utafiti huo ambao ulikuwa wa kwanza wa aina yake duniani, ilikuwa ni kuchunguza maumbulie ya ndani ya Nyoka huyo anayepatikana katika msitu wa Amazon.
Hata hivyo inaarifiwa bwana Paul alilazimika kusitisha utafiti wake ambao umezua utata muda mfupi tu baada ya kuuanzisha.
Watu nchini Marekani walijionea kwenye televisheni zao kipindi kilichokuwa kinapeperushwa cha mtaalamu huyo kuingia ndani ya tumbo la Anaconda akiwa amevalia vazi maalum ambalo yangesaidia kuchunguza kiwango cha joto mwilini mwake na pia kupima mipigo ya Moyo wake wakati akiwa ndani ya tumbo la Nyoka huyo.
Paul na vazi alilotumia kuingia ndani ya Nyoka kabla ya kushindwa na kusalimu amri
Rosolie na kikundi cha wasaidizi wake walipata Nyoka ya Anaconda mwenye uzito wa kilo 180, walipokuwa katika msitu huo. Alipanga kuwa ataonyeshwa kwenye stesheni hio akiwa anamezwa mzima mzima na Nyoka huyo.
Rosolie alionekana akiingia ndani ya mdomo wa Anaconda kwa kichwa chake huku wenzake wakimtazama.
Alikuwa amevalia vazi maalum lenye Carbon na likiwa limepakwa damu ya Nguruwe, kabla ya kujielkeza kwa Nyoka huyo kama mlo wake.
"sikutana kumhangaisha mno mnyama na pia mimi mwenyewe sikutaka kujiumiza. ''
Paul anapenda sana kujihusisha na maswala ya wanyama hasa Nyoka
"nilitaka kuhakikisha kuwa vazi langu halitamjeruhi Nyoka huyo kwa vyovyote vile.''
''Mimi mwenyewe sikuogopa hata kidogo. Watalaamu walifanyia jaribio vazi langu, kwa hivyo tulijua kuwa halitamwathiri kwa vyovyote Nyoka huyo. ''
Lakini baada tu ya saa moja ya mtaalamu kuingia ndani ya tumbo la Nyoka na kuanza kubanwa, aliamua kusitisha utafiti wake akihofia kuwa angeumizwa na Nyoka huyo mkubwa. Alisikika akiwaita wenzake kwa kifaa maalum cha kupaza sauti kilichokuwa kimewekwa kwenye vazi lake na kuwamabia kuwa anaumizwa.
''Nahisi kama mifupa yangu inasagwa sagwa, njooni mniondoe hapa.'' alisema Paul.
Namna ambavyo Rosolie aliponea kufa baada ya kubanwa na Nyoka huyo bado ni muujiza ingawa aliweza kupata hewa kutokaa kwa vazi lake hilo kwa saa tatu.

Rapper J.cole has taken shots at white entertainer who he claims are stealing black craft.
The rapper feels like Eminem, Macklemore and Iggy Azalea who beat Drake and Eminem for Favorite Rap/Hip-Hop Album & Favorite Rap/Hip-Hop Artist at this year’s American Music Awards are the root of the robbery.
In a new song he named Fire Squad, the half cast rapper said: “History repeats itself and that’s just how it goes / Same way that these rappers always bite each other’s flows / Same thing that my ni**a Elvis did with rock ‘n’ roll / Justin Timberlake, Eminem, and then Macklemore,”
