There are a number of Prostatitis and vitamins that may be a real help in promoting the health and functioning of the prostate and urinary tract in men. However, we would be remiss if we didn't mention that there are also minerals and other natural substances that may be very helpful in alleviating or warding off prostate problems. As such, they too need to be discussed.
However, before we delve into nonbacterial prostatitis and vitamins, let's briefly note three conditions that can cause prostate problems.
- Prostatitis, which is the inflammation of the prostate gland, is said to be common in men of all ages. Actually, prostatitis is a term that encompasses four forms: acute bacterial prostatitis, chronic bacterial prostatitis, chronic non-bacterial prostatitis, and prostadynia. Prostatitis is often caused by the following: * Infectious agents such as viruses, fungi, or mycoplasma. * A urinary tract infection and usually from the E. coli bacteria. * A partial blockage of the male urinary tract leading to the promulgation of bacteria. Symptoms include frequent, difficult urination, pain or burning when urinating, pain in lower back, and pain in the genital area and the pelvis. Indeed, many men have looked for help to combat these unpleasant symptoms viaNone-bacterial Prostatitis
and vitamins and other natural nutrients.
- BPH (benign prostatic hyperplasia) is an enlargement of the prostate gland with no signs of cancer. BPH affects most men over age 50, commonly causing urinary problems such as incomplete emptying of the bladder, dribbling, difficulty starting urination, reduced force of the stream, and frequent urination of small amounts.
- Prostate cancer. Scientists don't know exactly what causes prostate cancer. However, there are several risk factors that have been linked or theorized to the development, including men aged sixty five and older, African American men, high fat diets and obesity, high levels of testosterone, family history, recurring prostate infections, and exposure to cancer causing chemicals.
Now, without further adieu, let's begin by discussing prostate herbs and vitamins, and then we will discuss the power of minerals and other natural substances and how they too can be helpful to men.
