The past ten years have made a remarkable decade in terms of our understanding of the prostate. This of course has been driven by the tremendous
number and severity of prostate medical problems. Still, most of what we want to know about the prostate at a molecular and physiologic level remains unknown. Even basic concepts regarding
prostate anatomy have changed recently. A mans prostate gland is a solid organ found immediately below his bladder, and
it surrounds the "urethra" -- which is the tube connecting the bladder and the penis through which a man urinates. The other important parts of the male urogenital system are
the seminal vesicles and the testicles. The prostate has two important functions: one is to help control
urination and the other is to help sexual activity. The prostate has a so-called passive role in the process of urination. It helps to control the rate at which urine
flows out of the bladder and into the urethra. It does this by the effect of muscle fibers in the prostate that surround the urethra. The prostate also has
an active role in sexual activity. The prostate gland makes a whitish glandular secretion which collects within the prostate and is fed into the urethra during ejaculation. This glandular
secretion helps the motility of the sperm in the urethra and makes up about a third of the seminal fluid, thus giving seminal fluid its whitish appearance. Symptoms
