Prostate Health

The prostate, a gland in the male reproductive system, is located just below the bladder, between the rectum and the base of the penis. Because the prostate wraps around part of the urethra, where urine passes through, an enlarged prostate may cause issues with urination.

An enlarged prostate affects one in five men between the ages of 50 and 60, and it’s even more common in older men.

What causes Prostate Problems?

• The changes that occur with male sex hormones as part of the aging process appear to play a role in the enlargement of the prostate.
• As men age and testosterone levels drop, the proportion of estrogen increases and may trigger prostate growth.
