Sexual intercourse helps to better remove stones from the kidneys

(ORDO NEWS) — New work by urologists from Indonesia based on a study of 406 people showed that masturbation and sex have a positive effect on the removal of stones from the ureter. There are several tips.

Approximately 10% of people experience urolithiasis during their lifetime.

Scientists from Airlang University, Surabaya, Indonesia, published a new study in the Journal of Sexual Medicine that proves that sex and masturbation three to four times a week have a positive effect on the prevention of kidney and ureteral stones.

So, in addition to drinking fluids and medications , relaxing the muscles of the urinary tract, it is worth considering the new advice of specialists.

Stones in the kidneys

The urologists in Surabaya were curious to know if sexual activity affected how many kidney stones passed and how long it took.

They looked at five studies with 406 participants who were told to either have sex, masturbate three to four times a week, or abstain from both entirely.

The results showed that the rate of passage of stones through the kidneys was 5.7 times higher in the group that was sexually active.

Sex also helped alleviate the discomfort caused by kidney stones, with 62% fewer people in this group needing painkillers.

Doctors’ advice

Indonesian doctors have found that orgasms and ejaculation lead to a strong contraction and relaxation of the bladder neck, which facilitates the passage of stones from the kidneys: when the muscles relax, urine, along with kidney stones, can more easily pass through the urethra.

“Sexual intercourse or masturbation three to four times a week promotes spontaneous distal ureteral stone clearance,” says a report titled Pleasant Ways to Spontaneously Clear Distal Ureteric Stones.
