If you\u2019re deep in the midst of No-Nut November, you may want to reconsider \u2013 if not for your sanity, but to reduce your risk of prostate cancer<\/a>.<\/p>\n Research actually shows that ejaculating as much as once every day can really limit the chances, while another study suggests a staggering 21 orgasms a month reduces a man\u2019s likelihood of prostate cancer<\/a> by 20%.<\/p>\n This comes as scientists recently<\/a> revealed global deaths from the disease are likely to double in the next 20 years.<\/p>\n Orgasming 21 times a month yields impressive results for disease prevention, compared to men who come just four to seven times a month, who have a higher chance of getting prostate cancer.<\/p>\n The study, published in\u00a0European Urology<\/a> followed 32,000 men for 18 years and found that the more they came, the lower the risk of cancer.<\/p>\n Harvard Medical School<\/a> and\u00a0Brigham and Women Hospital scientists also found men reap the benefits from \u2018me time\u2019 or wet dreams<\/a>, with daily ejaculation proving an effective form of masturbation or intercourse.<\/p>\n \t\t We wish we could tell you why this is the case but the experts aren\u2019t exactly sure. They have theorised though, and Dr. Anne Calvaresi, the chair of the Urology Care Foundation\u2019s Prostate Health Committee, suggests ejaculation may protect the prostate by flushing out harmful chemicals that build up in semen.<\/p>\n She also explains it is possible men who ejaculate more may have healthier lifestyle habits\u00a0that decrease their odds of being diagnosed with the disease.<\/p>\n \t\t\t\tSign up to The Hook-Up, Metro’s sex and dating newsletter\t\t\t<\/p>\n Love reading juicy stories like this?

The orgasm from your prostate is a full body orgasm, and you feel a tingly sensation all over,\u2019 Gigi explains.<\/p>\n \t\t\t\tYour penis will thank you for…\t\t\t<\/p>\n Source: Yoxly <\/a><\/p>\n \u2018To reach it, you insert a finger or toy into the rectum, hooking up towards the belly button. The prostate feels like a rough-textured gland. The receiving partner may enjoy a variety of different types of prostate stimulation \u2013 varying from circular motions, to in-and-out penetration. It\u2019s highly subjective and different people enjoy different things.\u2019<\/p>\n Next Gigi suggests using a masturbation sleeve and recommends the Tenga Flex<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u2018It has a ribbed and grooved design to help men enjoy masturbation to the fullest extent. This toy has all the manoeuvrability of jelly toys, with much easier disinfection and better quality material. Simply apply lubricant, and slip the sleeve over your member,\u2019 says Gigi.<\/p>\n If you find you\u2019re flagging a little, take yourself into a different room rather than the bedroom because different surroundings can really help your sex drive.<\/p>\n Gigi explains: \u2018The bedroom might be the simplest place to get it on, but a change of scenery can really up the fire on your sexual mood. <\/p>\n \u2018Going outside the bedroom can give us\u00a0taste of the unknown that we crave. Humans really need novelty to keep their sexual interest high.\u2019<\/p>\n This article was originally published April 13, 2024.<\/strong><\/p>\n \t\t\t\tProstate Cancer: The Facts\t\t\t<\/p>\n The prostate is a gland. It is usually the size and shape of a walnut and grows bigger as you get older. It sits underneath the bladder and surrounds the urethra, which is the tube that carries urine (wee) out of the body. The prostate\u2019s main job is to help make semen \u2013 the fluid that carries sperm.<\/p>\n Prostate cancer can develop when cells in the prostate start to grow in an uncontrolled way.<\/p>\n Some prostate cancer grows too slowly to cause any problems or affect how long you live. Because of this, many men with prostate cancer will never need any treatment.<\/p>\n But some prostate cancer grows quickly and is more likely to spread. This is more likely to cause problems and needs treatment to stop it spreading.<\/p>\n In the UK, about 1 in 8 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime. We don\u2019t know exactly what causes prostate cancer but there are some things that may mean you are more likely to get it \u2013 these are called risk factors.<\/p>\n There are three main prostate cancer risk factors, which are things you can\u2019t change.
