Question 7

help please! is coitus good or bad for people who are suffering from cancer?

Accepted Answer

Good: For many (most?) adults, intercourse with someone they love is the most satisfying and meaningful of all activities. It is unlikely to affect the course of the disease itself, but it is an expression of love and is physically and emotionally satisfying. Even if there is no likelihood of conception, this act affirms the continuity of life and its new creation for someone perhaps facing death.

Hearing loss: Never heard of a such occurrence.

Nope: Pregnancy happens when the male sex cell (sperm) swims it's way to the female sex cell (egg).  This is independent of female of sexual response, although it does generally depend on the male orgasm.
