Cycling and prostate health have been linked together for several years after a study in 2014 found that as the amount of time participants spent cycling increased from under 3.75 hours to over 8.5 hours, so too did the risk of developing prostate cancer.
This risk was only associated in men over the age of 50, but it still presented some information which was quite shocking. Still, it is worth bearing in mind that this study looked at the differences amongst cyclists, and did not compare the risk against those who do not cycle at all.
