To prevent prostate cancer, some medical practitioners have advised men to eat a balanced diet and be engaged in regular sex.
The experts gave the advice on Friday, January 12 in Lagos.

Yabuku, also a Consultant Radiologist, said it had been scientifically proven that men who ejaculate more frequently were less likely to develop prostate cancer.
He explained that the prostate gland contains prostate fluid that mixes with the sperm to form the semen.
The Coordinator of One-Stop-Breast Cancer Clinic, Lagos University Teaching Hospital, LUTH, Dr Caleb Yakubu, said that men who engage in sex regularly stand a lower chance of developing prostate cancer.

According to him, with frequent ejaculation, there would not be any stagnancy or reduction in the flow of the fluid which might predispose and increase the risk of getting cancer.
“The prostate gland plays an important role in ejaculation. The prostate is a small, walnut-shaped gland that produces the fluid in semen. And it helps push this fluid out during ejaculation.
‘It is believed that if a man ejaculates/releases fluid from the prostate gland, there will not be any spaces or stagnancy in the flow that may now predispose and increase the risk of getting cancer.
