After the age of 40, about 80% of men start experiencing prostate problems. This is the time when the amount of DHT (dihydrotestosterone) starts to accumulate in the prostate gland. DHT is a very potent form of testosterone that causes overproduction of prostate cells resulting in prostate growth and higher risk of developing prostate cancer.
Located just below the bladder, the prostate is a gland that affects both urinary and sexual functions. It is susceptible to conditions such as BPH (benign prostatic hyperplasia), prostatitis and prostate cancer. Some of the earliest signs of prostate problems are erectile dysfunction and difficulty urinating.
Here are a few symptoms that may indicate an issue with prostate health:
- Need to urinate every 2 hours or less
- Difficulty delaying urination
- Frequently stopping and starting during urination
- Straining at the beginning of urination
- Weak urine stream or just a dribble
- Feeling like the bladder is not completely emptying
- Getting up frequently at night to urinate
There are natural ways to prevent and reverse problems with the prostate via diet and supplementation.
