Here is some info about Male Prostate Examinations
The prostate is a component of the male sexual organs. The prostate gland is mistakenly known as the prostrate, rather than prostate. The prostate gland's paramount function is to first secrete and then store a transparent liquid that is a component of semen (seminal fluid). A non-diseased human's prostate is a little bit greater in size than a shelled walnut. The prostate gland surrounds the urethra beneath the bladder. It is located in front of the rectum and part of it can be felt during the normal course of the rectal part of the exam.
Inflammation in the prostate is a gland that is referred to as prostatitis. If the prostate becomes too enlarged it can obstruct the flow of urine, making urination very painful and more difficult and in extreme situations wholly impossible. Prostatitis can usually be treated with antibiotic medications, prostate massage or even surgery.
In men who are elderly, the prostate may grow to the point where urinating becomes difficult or impossible. This is known as benign prostatic hyperplasia, commonly termed BPH. It can be treated with different types of medications or with even surgical procedures that removes a portion of the prostate. One commonplace surgical procedure used in these types of cases is called transurethral resection of the prostate (TUR or TURP).
Prostate cancer is one of the most commonplace cancers that affects older-aged men and a leading cause of deaths. Consistent rectal exams are recommended to detect prostate cancer before it spreads. There is also a laboratory blood evaluation that can measure the concentration of a protein, PSA or Prostate Specific Antigen), which should normally be quite low. Raised blood PSA results might signify disorder within the prostate, either prostatitis, benign hyperplasia or cancer. The PSA test cannot distinguish between these conditions, but can lead your doctor to investigate with further tests. Prostate cancer is treated with hormonal manipulation (preventing testosterone production), radiation or operations. It has only recently been discovered that medicines like Docetaxel can sometimes be effective in treating cancer.
Stimulation of the prostate in males is typically compared to stimulation of the G spot in females because prostate stimulation can cause more powerful orgasm. Prostate massage or milking refers to massaging motions of the prostate whether for clinical value or strictly sexual purposes.
