Prostate Restored

Physicists have found that peeing standing up significantly increases the velocity of the stream and potential for backsplash, amounting to less hygienic, more bacteria-filled bathrooms. So if dads aren't going to pee sitting down for their prostates, they can do it for their partners.

Alcohol and caffeinated drinks are not established risk factors for prostate cancer and will not affect PSA levels. Sep 4, 2020
Read More »Busy men might want to consider sitting down when they pee — not because it’s one of the few moments of the day they can rest, but because it might be better for them. For older men with prostate problems, in particular, sitting down to urinate could help them empty their bladders more effectively and reduce the risks of cysts and other health complications. “Men may start peeing sitting if their prostates are large and they need to help relax the pelvic muscles in an effort to help push the urine out,” says Jamin Brahmbhatt, M.D., a urologist and professor at the University of Central Florida College of Medicine. Scientists aren’t exactly sure what causes an enlarged prostate gland, or benign prostate hypertrophy. But the likelihood of having one increases with age. Hormones have something to do with it, as men who had their testicles removed at a young age due to cancer do not have these problems, research shows. And when men with enlarged prostates have their testicles removed, their prostates tend to shrink. The good news is that an enlarged prostate is thought to be a natural part of aging and not necessarily a precursor to prostate cancer. The bad news? All that pressure from the prostate can increase the risk of bladder cysts, infections, and discomfort or difficulty while urinating. But when men with enlarged prostates pee sitting down, studies suggest they’re able to empty their bladders more quickly and effectively, which can reduce some of these problems. Still, once your prostate is so troublesome that you’re sitting down just to pee effectively, you’re probably overdue for an appointment with your urologist. “It should be a reason to talk to your doctor or urologist about medical or surgical options,” Brahmbhatt says. This is especially the case if you’re under the age of 50. Young men shouldn’t be experiencing age-related prostate enlargement or trouble peeing. If you’re noticing changes in stream, or blood in your urine, seek immediate medical attention. For younger, healthy men, sitting to pee probably won’t provide any benefit to their prostates one way or another. But it still might be a more hygienic option. Physicists have found that peeing standing up significantly increases the velocity of the stream and potential for backsplash, amounting to less hygienic, more bacteria-filled bathrooms. So if dads aren’t going to pee sitting down for their prostates, they can do it for their partners. It will be good practice for their 50th birthdays. “There are men that have bad aim and can soak the toilet with splatters of urine,” Brahmbhatt says. “Sitting and urinating on the toilet does increase your odds of making sure the urine is actually going down the drain.”

The study also revealed the best position to get to the big O, with 90 percent of those surveyed reporting a longer lasting orgasm when on top.
A new study has revealed how long it takes the average woman to reach orgasm - and it may be a surprise to some. The study, performed India's Kadave Institute of Medical Sciences, was the first of its kind; getting participants to have sex with a stopwatch alongside them. The women were required to start a stopwatch when they became sexually aroused, and stop it again when they climaxed. The average time taken to reach orgasm was 13.5 minutes. However, timings varied, ranging from five minutes and 24 seconds, to a full 42 minutes. The study also revealed the best position to get to the big O, with 90 percent of those surveyed reporting a longer lasting orgasm when on top. With an average age of 30 years old, a total of 645 straight women from 21 countries took part in the experiment, all married or in long-term relationships. Scientists who conducted the study between October 2017 and last September believe they are the first to measure "orgasmic latency" - the gap between arousal and climax. In comparison, another study by Geneva University in 2009, found that the average man just needs about six minutes to orgasm.
