I wonder if this leads to higher risk of prostate cancer, as an inverse to studies on relatively frequent ejaculation lowering prostate cancer risk.


From what I gathered, it does not appear to have an impact on prostate cancer risk since the prostate still undergoes stimulation and fluid production, and the contents are still expelled.

Silodosine-induced retrograde ejaculation does not prevent ejaculation from occurring, it simply redirects the pathway (different anatomical exit).

It is different from chronic ejaculatory abstinence.
