That was my thought.....Obamacare
A study on ejaculation and prostate cancer risk, which made a big splash at last year's annual meeting of the American Urological Association (AUA), was published online March 29 in European Urology.
The publication provides greater detail on the main finding: that men might be able to lower their risk for prostate cancer by ejaculating frequently.
"This large prospective study provides the strongest evidence to date of a beneficial role of ejaculation in prevention of prostate cancer," write the researchers, led by Jennifer Rider, ScD, MPH, a cancer epidemiologist at the Boston University School of Public Health.
However, another expert threw the requisite cold water on any firm conclusion.
"Association does not mean causation, so one has to be cautious about interpretation," Janet Stanford, PhD, MPH, a prostate cancer researcher at the Fred Hutchison Cancer Research Center in Seattle, who was not involved in the study, said about the observational data.
The data come from 31,925 men in the prospective Health Professionals Follow-up Study, who were followed from 1992 to 2010. The average age of the men in 1992 was about 59 years
There are number of similar studies in the literature now that support this conclusion as well....so....perhaps the providers should file for payment from health insurors for providing medical treatment benefits? And it's another god reason to legalize the ladies in the hobby; not that there need to be anymore reasons. Some colleagues always have to throw some cold water so I would ignore Dr Sanfor MPH PhD...she is not even a medical doctor.

Despite hobbying several times a week, I ended up with a bit of prostate cancer..
Found out there are MANY factors ( heredity, diabetes, diet, obesity, etc ) and just plain
bad luck !
Just finished many weeks of radiation therapy and I should now be cancer free..AND it did
not seem to affect my sex life one bit, so there is hope.. but there is nothing wrong
with trying to lower your risks by having frequent o's !! Carry on gentlemen ( and thanks
to the ladies who are doing their part to help us guys be 'healthier' !! )
Best of luck to you and your recovery.
I had my Radiation Treatment on a spot on my lung.
Thanks God its gone now and I didn't glow in the dark.
And it's good to know you're getting back to yourself as well !! Hope
to see you again at the next social event !!
Maybe a provider twice a week could be covered by Obamacare.
