The prostate is a gland found only in men - located in the area under the bladder. It surrounds the ureter - of which the latter is responsible for directing urine out of the body. In short, it is responsible for producing a thick, white fluid that mixes with sperm to form sperm. The prostate gland is small and the size of a walnut, but gradually grows older as we get better. The three most common conditions that cause swelling or physical enlargement of this gland are:

• Inflammation of the prostate
• Benign enlargement of the prostate gland
• Cancer of the prostate

Cause and diagnosis: Why have I had prostate and prostate problems?

Inflammation of the prostate

The prostate gland can become inflamed and irritated due to several different causes, but the most common is a bacterial infection - however, it can also swell and become inflamed without any signs of inflammation. When the prostate becomes inflamed, it will also swell and become enlarged. Such prostatitis can affect men of all ages - but usually affects those aged 30 to 50 years.

Typical symptoms of inflammation of the prostate include:

• Frequent urination (that you have to go to the bathroom more often than usual)
• Pain in the pelvis, genitals, lower back and seat
• Pain in the area between the scrotum and the anus
• Pain during ejaculation
• It hurts when you pee

If you have these symptoms, we advise you to contact a doctor for control and examination. Normally, an inflammation of the prostate will be treated with medication and usually the condition improves within a few weeks or months - but can also persist longer in certain, rarer cases.

Benign enlargement of the prostate gland

Nearly a third of men over the age of 50 have an enlarged prostate gland - so as you can see it is a fairly common, harmless condition. You do not know the exact reason why the prostate grows as you get older, but it is important to know that it is not due to cancer and that it does not increase the chance of you being affected by prostate cancer.

As the prostate grows and grows, this can lead to pressure on the ureter, which in turn causes certain problems when urinating. Clinical symptoms and signs of an enlarged prostate include:

• That you have to "take in" to urinate
• Drops that end up in the "boxer shorts" after you have peed
• A feeling that you will never completely empty your bladder
• Waking up at night due to having to pee
• Problems starting or ending a urine jet
• Weak urine

If you experience problems with urination or you experience the above symptoms, you can contact your GP for a clinical evaluation and examination. It is recommended that you try to avoid and drink too much just before bedtime and especially alcohol, tea and coffee (all of which can lead to increased water separation). Certain types of medication can shrink the prostate and cause the muscles around the bladder to relax. In the case of extensive problems that do not respond to drug treatment, it may be appropriate to remove a small part of the prostate via a surgical procedure.

Cancer of the prostate

Prostate cancer is the most common form of cancer among men. One is uncertain as to the reason behind being affected by prostate cancer, but one knows that the chance increases with age. Primarily, men over 65 are affected by this diagnosis, but men over 50 are at risk.

Other risk factors for being affected by prostate cancer include:

• Ethnic Origin: Men of African and European origin are affected more frequently than those of Asian origin.
• Family history: If there is a family history where your father or brother has been affected by prostate cancer when they were under 60 or a female member is affected by breast cancer, then there is an increased risk of getting prostate cancer.

Symptoms of prostate cancer can be difficult to distinguish from normal prostate enlargement, but include:

• That it takes a long time to empty the bladder due to weak beam.
• Blood in the urine or semen.
• A feeling that there is always fluid in the bladder.
• Frequent urination.
• Difficulties in starting a beam.

If you experience any one or more of these symptoms then you need to know that there is a higher probability that it is benign enlarged prostate - but it is important to rule out that it is cancer. This form of cancer, unlike many other types of cancer, develops more slowly and takes longer before it becomes fatal - and many people die of the disease rather than dying from the disease itself.

If you are over 50 and experience any of the above mentioned symptoms, you are advised to consult your doctor for control.
