Prostate Health
The main function of the prostate is to store and secrete a clear, slightly basic fluid that constitutes up to one-third of the volume of semen. Semen is composed of sperm and seminal fluid; about 10-30% of the seminal fluid is produced by the prostate gland, the rest is produced by the two seminal vesicles.
The prostate also contains some smooth muscles that helps to expel semen during ejaculation.
Among the disorders of the prostate are prostatitis, BPH, and prostate cancer.

Treating Prostate Cancer with Hormone Therapy
In the past, the only treatment for prostate cancer was an Orchiectomy. That is the surgical removal of one or both of the testicles. Thank goodness research...
