The prostate gland (prostate) – an organ located below the bladder, surrounding the urethra. It has dimensions of about 30 x 40 x 20 mm and a weight of 15-20, consists of two parts and is shaped like a chestnut. The prostate is composed of muscle and glandular tissues. The glandular tissue produces prostatic fluid (prostatic fluid). Prostatic juice, together with a secret seminal vesicle forms the bulk of semen volume, sperm supply needed to supply and activation of substances.

In addition, the prostate gland is involved in the development and exchange of male sex hormones, which in turn not only provides male sexual function, but also the entire metabolism in a man, therefore, the function of all organs and systems in the male body. Therefore, the statement of Greek doctors that the prostate gland – the second man’s heart, and remains relevant today.

Frequently Prostate Disease

Depending on the degree of inflammation of the body temperature can reach 39-40° C, although it may remain normal.

This disease requires:

• immediate treatment to the urologist and adequate treatment;
• when acute, prostatitis prognosis is generally favorable;
• if the necessary treatment is started promptly, it is good.

However, in severe cases, with late onset of antibiotic therapy, can form an abscess of the prostate gland, which requires surgical treatment, as a transition of acute inflammation in chronic.

Earlier the disease is detected, the sooner you can start productive treatment. In the presence of the disease, cannot be delayed diagnosis and treatment, if the doctor has ordered an urgent requirement.

Chronic prostatitis can be infectious and noninfectious. The cause of infectious prostatitis is any kind of pathogen that causes inflammation in the prostate gland healthy. When it is non-infectious prostatitis, the main reason of disease is the appearance of stagnation, such as poor circulation and drainage of prostatic acini.

1. Although the disease occurs due to age-related changes, it should not be taken as inevitable or normal state.
2. Especially it is not necessary to self, many of the widely advertised supplements “plant extract” and homeopathic remedies, “absorbable adenoma”, in fact, generally have not been suitable for clinical trials and provide no beneficial effect other than psychological.
3. Micturition disorders, caused by BPH can lead to a violation of the outflow of urine from the bladder and kidneys; promote the development of urinary tract infections, the formation of urinary stones and kidney failure.

Modern methods of treatment of BPH are diverse and highly effective, the choice of treatment depends on the stage of the disease and adenoma size. They are divided into medical and surgical. Timely diagnosis and drug treatment of the disease will stop the prostate growth and avoid surgery. Development primarily medical method led to that operated in the US up to 20% of patients with BPH. However, the operation is shown completely in some cases. In the selection of the optimal method for you the decisive role is playing qualification of the doctor. Prostate cancer cannot be prevented; at least prophylaxis has not yet been developed.
Symptoms of the disease – usually a urinary disorder, similar to symptoms of prostatitis and BPH, appear in the later stages of the disease. Prostate cancer cure is possible in case of detection of disease at an early stage. This is done through regular urological examinations, which must take place every healthy man after 40 years 1 time in 6 months. The survey is conducted on an outpatient basis (no need to go to the hospital) it does not take a lot of time and material resources.

 

What is BPH?

The cause of this type of cancer is not known, but is probably due to hormonal disturbances that occur with aging. The pathogenesis plays only an initial role, leading ultimately to a violation of hemodynamics of the bladder and kidneys, and naturally developing tissue hypoxia. Hypoxia of detrusor in BPH is not only a consequence of the relative lack of blood flow in hypertrophied bladder wall and compression with adenomatous nodes of lower cystic artery, but also a consequence of the age atherosclerosis arterial disease (“detrusor senile”). BPH leads to the development of bladder outlet obstruction which eventually leads to high detrusor pressure and reducing the flow of urine from the kidneys and the emergence of vesicoureteral reflux and kidney.

These phenomena trigger ischemic processes in the kidney tissue, which are the important pathogenetic link in the development of inflammation and renal failure. Many men over the age of 50 years have some kind of disorder of urination, i.e. symptoms are typical of BPH. However, the cause of the symptoms which are specific to adenomas may be not only the disease but prostate inflammation (prostatitis), prostatic cancer, impaired contractility of the bladder muscles. Therefore, men older than 40 years should promptly contact the urologist so that doctor could make the correct diagnosis and prescribe the necessary treatment.

What Are the Signs and Symptoms of BPH?

BPH occurs due to proliferation of the body tissue, wherein an increase in prostate volume. This leads to compression of the prostatic urethra and a constriction of its lumen, which prevents normal outflow of urine from the bladder and promotes obstructive symptoms:

• difficult urination;
• sluggish stream of urine;
• increased urination time;
• retention, combined with its incontinence (paradoxical ischuria).

Simultaneously symptoms of diseases caused by changes in the bladder muscle appear, and irritation of the nerve endings of prostatic urethra increases, this is symptoms:

• frequent nighttime awakenings for urination;
• frequent and painful urination in small doses;
• withhold urine with urge to urinate.

Major complications arising for patients with BPH as follows:

• residual urine in the bladder;
• acute urinary retention;
• bladder stones;
• chronic cystitis (inflammation of the bladder);
• kidney inflammation;
• chronic renal failure;
• hematuria (blood in the urine).

The stream of urine becomes thinned and very sluggish, the patient may feel that the bladder is not completely emptied; residual urine volume reaches 100-200 ml or more. At this time, acute urinary retention can occur, and because of the difficulty of outflow of urine from the upper urinary tract is disturbed renal function.

How Does Cialis Work for BPH?

Cialis – is tablets which enhance an erection. They are intended for the treatment of impotence, they are used for obtaining solid penis. When sex is not possible, the doctor prescribes Cialis pills. According to statistics in 2011, scientists have identified the following indicators – more than 70% of men have used Cialis, as a means to increase potency, and they had problems with urination. The disease has been developed by 30%, but the men continued to take generic. Among them were those who suffered from hyperplasia.

Today Cialis is used to treat the disease. The drug increases the rate of chemical composition of blood, guanosine monophosphate is also increased. The muscle cells relax, the bladder and the prostate does not bring any discomfort. The men took a daily Cialis 5 mg per day. According to the observations of doctors situation has improved – men ceased to complain about back pain, dizziness, fatigue, pain in the penis, painful urination stopped. Also, Cialis, just like any other drug has its side effects:

• nausea and vomiting;
• diarrhea;
• brain and spinal pain;
• muscle pain;
• redness of the skin;
• nasal congestion.

Tablets expand the arteries and veins, so that the blood could circulate faster and better. Therefore penis gets more blood flow and it helps to restore erections. If men have already taken medication, it is recommended to take a break, since frequent use leads to increased pressure. If the dose is exceeded, the person may lose consciousness, hearing loss and vision. If this happens, you need to go to the doctor and to establish the symptoms and treatment of disease.

How Does Flomax Work for BPH?

Flomax – is a drug which is necessary for the treatment of urinary tract infections and channels. Since 1990, this drug has been applied for the treatment of various diseases, which occur among men of the older generation. They help to relax the muscles of the pelvic organs, the bladder neck and prostate. Pressure is reducing, blood can circulate better. Flomax also has side effects:

• nasal congestion;
• a sore throat;
• untimely ejaculation.

Before you take the tablets, you should consult with your doctor, because medication may adversely affect the man as a whole. The drug should not be taken, if a man suffers from an allergic reaction to sulphates. Also, if a man is planning to carry out the operation on the eye, he should not take Flomax. If you are taking medicines for the treatment of erectile dysfunction, it is not necessary to take Flomax. It can reduce the effect of other drugs and cause blood pressure, fainting.
