The results of a research study by the North Carolina State University from 2003 show that women who perform fellatio (or “blowjob” in colloquial language) and swallow semen regularly, one to two times a week, may reduce their risk of breast cancer by up to 40 percent.

The results were unexpected by the doctors, who had never suspected to find a link between performing fellatio and breast cancer. The study, which spanned 10 years, involved 15,000 women “suspected” of having performed regular fellatio and swallowed the ejaculatory fluid. Researchers discovered that those actually having performed fellatio regularly had a lower occurrence of breast cancer than those who had not.

However, there is no increased risk of breast cancer for those who had not regularly performed fellatio.

“I think it removes the last shade of doubt that fellatio is actually a healthy act,” said Dr. A.J. Kramer of Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, who was not involved in the research. “I am surprised by these findings, but am also excited that the researchers may have discovered a relatively easy way to lower the occurrence of breast cancer in women.”
