How do octopus reproduce sexually?

Yes this is very true. Males live long enough to reproduce with more females, but die within two months at most. Females lay their eggs in a secretive cave, and take care of her eggs for 6 whole months. Before they hatch she leaves and places herself to pass away in a small area. It is a triggered hormone that forces them to die after laying eggs, or in males case, after they mate. It is said that if the reproductive organs was removed for a female, she a longer chance of living. But I have never heard of this to happen, so perhaps it was just a rumor.
