ProstateThe prostate is situated just below the bladder, encircling the urethra where it emits from the bladder. The prostate influences lubrication of the spermatoza and controls the discharge of seminal fluid during copulation, as well as regulating the urine discharge. Because the prostate is concerned with the manufacture of fluid in which the sperm cells float, removal of the gland results in sterility, even though it does not otherwise affect sexual powers of an individual. Swelling of the prostate will bring about pressure or pain between the legs upward toward the abdomen. Due to its anatomical position it will also disturb the urine flow and in severe cases reduce it to mere dribbles. The complete voidance is thus impeded and the bladder will be stimulated much more frequently. Because of this incomplete evacuation and sometimes outright strangulation of the urine flow, there is a possibility of hydronephrosis. (a condition where there is obstruction of the outflow of urine from the kidney) It ultimately results in destruction of kidney tissue) Prostate involvement can drop the energy level markedly, cause leg pains and cystitis (inflammation of the urinary bladder) due to the residual urine. It may also envoke a loss of libido. (sex drive) The prostate is also vital in connection with the testes as it stimulates the manufacture of testosterone. Testosterone is the hormone that keeps the prostate from enlarging. It also helps rebuild flabby muscles, stimulates brain cells, nourishes he heart muscle and brings about renewed muscle tone throughout the body. It has been suggested that hypertrophy (increase the size of an organ) of the prostate is compensatory to the warning of the function of the testes. Research has shown that the use of glandular therapy may play a role in the renewal of damaged tissue. These statements have not been evaluated by the Food And Drug Administration.
