The prostate is part of the male reproductive system. It helps produce semen, the thick, whitish fluid that transports sperm. It’s roughly doughnut-shaped and about the size of a walnut. Located just below the bladder and in front of the rectum, the prostate surrounds the first inch or so of the urethra, the tube that carries urine from the bladder (see accompanying diagram).
Prostate function and growth depend on the male hormone testosterone, which is produced in the testes. With advancing age–for reasons that are not entirely clear–the prostate in most, but not all, men will grow to a size that puts pressure on the urethra. At first there may be no symptoms. But, as the urethra becomes more and more compressed, urination fails to completely empty the bladder. It refills rapidly, giving rise to the need for frequent urination. More serious complications can follow. Urine remaining in the bladder for a long time can lead to infection, bladder stones, and kidney disease. A completely blocked urethra is a medical emergency requiring immediate measures to allow urine to escape from the bladder, followed by treatment directed at the underlying prostate problem.
