The prostate is a gland present between the bladder and penis that helps make semen. It is the size of a walnut in young men and grows larger with age. Problems are caused when the size increases a lot. Some of the most common problems seen are:

•    Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) – commonly seen in older men, where the prostate grows to an unhealthy size.

•    Prostate cancer – one in six men get prostate cancer at some point in their life.

•    Prostatitis – inflammation of the prostate usually caused by bacteria.
