Reduced risk of prostate cancer for men with reduced fertility


N.B. Sorry for this no image post as Blogger is not allowing me to post one at this time.


Men, if there is any comfort in this information, then the pleasure is all mine to share.
According to an article in Medical News Today, a recent research finds that men with reduced fertility, have one advantage, they are at reduced risk for prostate cancer.
Follow the link below to learn more:-
From the article:
“There is a clear link between male subfertility and a lower risk of prostate cancer. According to a new thesis from Lund University in Sweden, involuntarily childless men have around a 50 per cent lower risk of suffering from prostate cancer than men who have fathered at least one child. 

Yasir Ruhayel, a doctoral student at Lund University and doctor at Skåne University Hospital, has based his research on the Malmö Diet and Cancer population study, where he has compared around 450 men with prostate cancer with an equal number of men in a control group who had not been diagnosed.”
