Al-Marsad newspaper: Radiotherapy oncology consultant Dr. Youssef Kateb explained the fact that “masturbation” causes prostate cancer.
He said during an interview with the program “Madam”: “There is no scientific study that has shown that” masturbation “is one of the causes of prostate cancer.”
He added: “Sometimes masturbation is beneficial so that there are no changes in the prostate gland with loss of ejaculate and spermatogenesis.”
He stressed that there is no specific cause that leads to prostate cancer, but studies have shown that changes in the DNA that nourishes the cells in the prostate gland lead to division and changes in growth, and thus normal cells change and become abnormal and cause tumors, and as they accumulate, symptoms begin to appear gradually.
