Reproductive System and the Prostate
The main function of the prostate is to produce a special milky fluid that is combined with the sperm during ejaculation. The sperm is made in the testicles and is delivered to the urethra during orgasm. Prostatic fluid contains a number of substances, including minerals, proteins, enzymes and a substance called prostatic specific antigen (PSA). These substances help the movement of the sperm through the urethra and the unfriendly environment of the vagina. They also nourish the sperm and keep it liquid by preventing it from becoming too sticky. PSA is especially useful in this regard.
Urinary System and the Prostate
Although the prostate gland is not a major component of the urinary system, it does play a role. Urine is produced by the kidneys, which continuously filter the blood and remove impurities, toxins, waste products, unneeded nutrients and extra water. Since the blood is being filtered and purified all the time, urine is also produced around the clock. Each kidney is connected to the bladder by a narrow muscular pipe called the urether. Once formed, the urine flows from the kidneys to the bladder. This process continues until the bladder becomes full, at which time it sends a message to the brain, which in turn informs you that it is time to go to the bathroom to urinate. A healthy prostate will not trigger a false message to the brain that the bladder is full, thus aiding proper function of the urinary system. |
