There is an old saying that "use it or lose it." Some older wives of older men do not want to have sex at their age, so excuses abound. The more you exercise your prostate gland, the longer it will last. This statement is for much older men. Masturbation or sex in the future will exercise your prostate gland to continue to provide semen when you ejaculate. It is far too early for you to concern yourself with your prostate. It will be there now or when you get older to do its job. Go and have fun! Harrald

There are many health benefits. So as long as you feel like doing it, go for it.

what u only just started masturbation?? not masturbation but with it dont forget to ejaculate(duh) but it dosent matter if u dont ejaculate yes it does helps to prevent prostrate related diseases such as cancer, bacteria, prostrate enlargement etc as it is getting rid of all that semen which can get jammed just as a patrol in the car if you leave it for too long it will damage the car.

Does it prevent prostrate cancer? No. Does it lessen the odds that you'll develop prostrate cancer? Yes. Some studies have shown that frequent ejaculations, no matter how they are achieved, may reduce the odds of developing prostrate cancer. What this means is that those who ejaculate more often are less likely to develop prostrate cancer, but it does not exclude them from it.
7 :
masturbation may be prevent prostate cancer.A team in Australia led by Graham Giles of The Cancer Council Victoria in Melbourne asked 1079 men with prostate cancer to fill in a questionnaire detailing their sexual habits, and compared their responses with those of 1259 healthy men of the same age. The team concludes that the more men ejaculate between the ages of 20 and 50, the less likely they are to develop prostate cancer.

What treatment to take? I have Prostate Cancer and I just found out

What treatment to take? I have Prostate Cancer and I just found out.?
The Prostate can be removed or I can have Radiation. The Cancer is localized to my prostate only. If I have Radiation and the Cancer returns they will not remove my Prostate and if I have my prostate removed and the Cancer returns I can have Radiation. I'm done reproducing as I just turned fifty four. To me it's a no brainer (survival and remove), I still want to be able to have sex with my wife though and there are risks either way. Please advise!

I really think that's a medical question for your treating doctors not for the average joes on Answers
2 :
I understand what you saying. But you need talk your doctor about what you told us.
3 :
I agree with you. Surgical removal (radical prostatectomy) will be the "cure" as long as the post-surgical pathology shows complete encapsulation - no spread outside the prostate. Whether you "have sex" with your wife after you recover depends on how you define "having sex". It may be difficult or impossible to maintain an erection. Talk to your urologist about prosthetic implants prior to surgery. If I remember correctly, only about 20% of patients with radical prostatectomy can achieve an erection. Some respond to Viagra-type of medications, some don't. You may be able to achieve orgasm if the surgery preserved the nerves successfully. I can't stress enough how important it is to make sure your surgeon is competent and well-practiced in this very delicate procedure. You seem to have a realistic outlook going into this procedure. Be sure to discuss your situation with an oncologist and radiologist as well as your urologist/surgeon before you make a final decision.

perhaps, no

not at all sex is heathy , other causes may be genetic or constant pressure on ur crotch (eg. tight underwear)
3 :
No there is no scientific evidence. Healthy sex is good for health. As for causes of prostate cancer-----The risk (predisposing) factors for prostate cancer include advancing age, genetics (heredity), hormonal influences, and such environmental factors as toxins, chemicals, and industrial products. The chances of developing prostate cancer increase with age. Thus, prostate cancer under age 40 is extremely rare, while it is common in men older than 80 years of age. As a matter of fact, some studies have suggested that among men over 80, between 50 and 80% of them may have prostate cancer! Genetics (heredity), as you mentioned, plays a role in the risk of developing a prostate cancer. Environment, diet, and other unknown factors, however, can modify such genetic predispositions. For example, prostate cancer is uncommon in Japanese men living in their native Japan. However, when these men move to the United States, their incidence of prostate cancer rises significantly. Prostate cancer is also more common among family members of individuals with prostate cancer. Thus, a person whose father, grandfather, or even uncle has prostate cancer is at an increased risk for also developing prostate cancer.

<<<<<<<<<<Does sex increase high chance of prostate cancer?>>>>>>>>>> N.....O Other causes are not known.
5 :
Regular ejaculation DECREASES the chance of developing prostate cancer, according to most respectable studies...as does increasing the amount of lycopene in your diet (eat tomatoes/tomato-sauced products)...
6 :
No, more frequent ejaculation decreases prostate cancer risk. Perhaps a cause of it would be a mutation in the RNA expression of a man's 5-alpha reductase enzyme that converts testosterone to dihydrotestosterone.
7 :
no. The chance of prostate cancer develop as you get older. especially men over 40. as you get older especially over 40, your prostate gland start to enlarge. enlargement of the prostate gland is natural but cell production while growth will increase chance of malignancy cell to be form. the malignant cell is called prostate cancer. so if you are a Man over 40, i suggest you to get prostate exams at least 3 years.
8 :
No, but believing the PSA test, and then having invasive biopsies will do more harm than good. Today's ( Saturday) Sydney Morning Herald has a front page story which throws doubt on the whole prostate cancer story. Be careful about having prostate surgery, many don't need it, many have regretted having it. All the best, Nvrgvup www.friendswithcancer.com.au
