Wissenswertes über "Prostate"
The prostate (prostate gland) is a small, chestnut-sized gland in the male body that lies below the bladder and surrounds the urethra in a ring.
The main function of the prostate is the production of prostate secretions, a component of the ejaculate that supports the mobility and lifespan of the sperm . The function of the prostate is influenced by male sex hormones, in particular testosterone. With increasing age, however, functional and structural changes can occur that lead to symptoms.
The most common diseases of the prostate include benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) - a benign enlargement of the gland -, prostate inflammation (prostatitis) and in rarer cases prostate cancer. The first signs of impaired prostate function are frequent urination, nocturnal urination, weak urine stream, feeling of residual urine or pain when urinating. A medical examination by means of palpation, PSA value determination and ultrasound is crucial for clarification.
In addition to conventional medical therapies, herbal remedies are also used to support prostate health - for example saw palmetto extract, stinging nettle root, pumpkin seeds or beta-sitosterol. Also a hormonally balanced lifestyle, exercise, a low-inflammatory diet and targeted micronutrients such as zinc, vitamin Dand omega-3 fatty acids can be helpful. Naturopathic practice is also increasingly discussing lactoferrin for inflammation inhibition and immunological modulation in prostatitis.
