6 supplements to help with prostatitis
If you’re a man who’s middle age or older, there’s a good chance you’re dealing with one of two common prostate issues: benign prostatic hyperplasia (enlargement), called BPH, or prostatitis.
BPH affects one in four American men by age 55 and half of men by age 75; prostatitis, a painful inflammation of the prostate gland, can also hit younger men. The prostate is an integral part of a guy’s “manhood” because it contributes to production of semen, the fluid that carries sperm. The first signs of prostate problems usually show up as frequent urination, dribbling, or getting up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom.
You might be reluctant to talk about your health, but symptoms like these shouldn’t be ignored. Though it’s always best to get a clear diagnosis from a health care practitioner (at the very least to rule out prostate cancer), these natural remedies, listed here in priority order, are safer than prescription drugs and often just as effective for many men.
