Does masturbating reduce the chances of prostatitis?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Masterbation: Many urologists feel that ejaculation on a regular basis can reduce the incidence of prostatitis in those prone to such, but i believe there is no actual data to support that. As long as it's not excessive, what can it hurt!?
