Innovation in Prostate Health

You don’t need to feel bad
if you don’t know what the prostate gland is. It’s one of the most neglected
organs of the male body even though it plays a vital role in the male
reproductive system. Its position below the bladder in men and isn’t very big
to start with. When prostate health is neglected, various problems with the
prostate are inevitable.
Problems with the
prostate
Most men have some issue or
another with the prostate gland after the age of 50. These prostate problems
get worse with age if left unattended. Age also increases the likelihood of
developing a problematic prostate. The top illnesses that plague the prostate
are:
1. Enlarged Prostate: The
prostate gland usually keeps growing as the man gets older. It pushes against
the urethra and bladder and makes it difficult to urinate and increases the
number of times you have to go. It’s a painful and awkward condition to be. Having
an enlarged prostate can be the end of the dream of a peaceful retired life.
2. Prostatitis: Inflammation of
the prostate due to infection is called prostatitis and is common in men of all
ages.
3. Prostate Cancer: This is the
illness most men and their wives fear and many are aware of. There are
different kinds of cancers and some might not grow fast enough to cause any
damage at all.
All these conditions have
similar symptoms. So if you’re experiencing pain during urination or feeling
like you are not completely empty even moments after urination you might have a
prostate problem.
Conventional
solutions for prostate health
Researchers are tirelessly
trying to find new ways to aid people suffering from the prostate conditions
listed above. The conventional solutions that have had quite a bit of success
so far are:
1. Drugs: Most doctors suggest
taking alpha-blockers that enhance urine flow or relax the pelvic muscles. But
part of battling with an enlarged prostate includes fighting incontinence. Sometimes
dietary and lifestyle changes are recommended.
2. Supplements: As a way to
develop a healthy prostate, men often take prostate supplements. One of the
most reliable supplements right now is Super Beta Prostate Supplement. I’ve read Super Beta Prostate
Supplement review that say
that it not only helps promote prostate health but also contains over a dozen
other nutrients that replenish the entire body. According to Super Beta Prostate
review, it also
contains other nutrients that support overall health and prostate health.
3. Antibiotics: For prostatitis,
taking antibiotics is the best course of action that most doctors will
prescribe.
4. Surgery and Chemo: In cases
of a fast growing cancer, immediate surgery followed by chemo is the
conventional solution and not without success.
Innovation in Prostate
health
The new procedure can help
men with enlarged prostates. It is called Prostate Artery Embolisation or PAE.
It is a non-invasive procedure which makes it a low risk procedure as well. It
was first performed in 2009 and has since been used safely in Brazil and
Portugal and is now becoming popular in the States.
Here’s how it works: The
specific arteries that flow into the gland are blocked and this shrinks the
prostate even up to third of its size. All this is accomplished quickly, with
little pain, without side-effects and low risk of anything serious going wrong.
With the fine work doctors and researchers are
doing, we can find innovative and safer ways to live longer and healthier lives
without the worries and restraints of having an enlarged prostate.
