Updated dose–response meta-analysis of sexual activity and prostate cancer risk
These findings suggest that most sexual behaviors are not significantly associated with prostate cancer risk. However, higher ejaculation frequency appears to have a protective effect. The results highlight the multifactorial nature of prostate cancer and emphasize the need for further research to clarify the role of sexual activity in disease prevention.
