The prostate is a small, walnut-shaped gland in men located near the bladder. Its job is to produce seminal fluid that nourishes and transports sperm. Prostate enlargement, or benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), happens to most men as they age. As the prostate gets bigger, it presses on the urethra and can cause bladder and urination problems.
Having BPH isn't a precursor to cancer. Prostate cancer starts on the outer part of the gland and grows outward into the surrounding tissue. BHP begins in the inner prostate and keeps expanding inward towards the core and tightening around the urethra, affecting urination.
Prostate-ProTM + Maca Support helps to relieve urologic symptoms associated with early stages of benign prostatic hyperplasia, including difficulty urinating, weak urine flow, incomplete voiding and frequent day and nighttime urination. The natural ingredients in Prostate-ProTM help to discourage prostate inflammation and enhance circulation, which is especially important when the prostate is congested.
