Recommendations For Wellness\n\nIf you are over 40, have your doctor perform a prostate exam during your regular checkup.\n\nIncorporate a healthful diet filled with lots of fruits and vegetables and low on unsaturated fats, sugars and processed foods.\n\nKegel exercises can be done to improve circulation to these tissues. A kegel exercise is performed by pulling up all the muscles around the scrotum and anus. Repeat this movement 10 times. Try doing this 'invisible' exercise 5-6 times daily.\n\nFor men suffering from prostate enlargement, saw palmetto is the place to start. Saw palmetto has a long history of relieving testicular inflammation and inhibiting the hormone responsible for prostate enlargement.\n\nZinc has also been used for decades to support a healthy prostate.\n\nThe herbs nettle and pygeum have also been show to be effective for relieving symptoms associated with an enlarged prostate. They can be used alone or in conjunction with saw palmetto.\n\nA great combination for prostate issues is Nature's Sunshine Men's Formula with Lycopene, which contains pygeum, saw palmetto, gotu kola, stinging nettle and zinc. \n\nYou can also try Nature's Sunshine's PS II or P-X. PS II contains antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties that are beneficial for maintaining healthy prostate gland function. \n\nIncorporate the herb damiana into your wellness program. Damiana has a long history of helping balance the body's hormones.\n\nHydrangea is another herb that supports the urinary system, where it is know to promote the overall health of the prostate gland and help to reduce inflammation and swelling.\n\nTake antioxidants. Supplementation with antioxidants (vitamins A,C, E and selenium), such as those found in Defense Maintenance or super Antioxidant will help to protect these sensitive tissues from oxidative damage.\n\nAbout this contributor: Dr. Rita Louise, PhD is a Naturopathic Physician and a 20-year veteran in the Human Potential Field, but it is her unique gift as a medical intuitive that enlivens her work.

There is medication available, and it is helpful.  The prostate can be removed through the lower abdomen, but this is generally not the preferred surgical approach since abdominal surgery is something of a "biggie".  You should speak with a urologist if you have prostate concerns.  I have never heard of stents being used in the treatment of enlarged prostate.

Boy, I had this! I am not a man, but know the symptoms quite well. I even did some gallbladder purges that the eyerodologist said to do. BIG MISTAKE!!! I almost died...or at least I thought I did. Sure took a tumble and blackened my eye on the door jamb. I finally got relief from using Ciaga juice. It sounds crazy, but this really helped me cleanse the bad stuff out of my system. If you need more info where to get it etc. contact me. shyida@yahoo.com Good luck!

Well there are three main reasons for Prostate Enlargement; Prostate Cancer, Prostititis, and Benign Prostate Hyperplasia (BPH.)\n\nBPH is the enlargement of the prostate gland, the reason for the enlargement is still unknown.\n\nMost Common BPH Symptoms are:\n* Blood in the urine (i.e., hematuria), caused by straining to void \n*Dribbling after voiding \n*Feeling that the bladder has not emptied completely after urination \n*Frequent urination, particularly at night (i.e., nocturia) \n*Hesitant, interrupted, or weak urine stream caused by decreased force \n*Leakage of urine (i.e., overflow incontinence) \n*Pushing or straining to begin urination \n*Recurrent, sudden, urgent need to urinate \n*localized Pain\n\nThere are many different treatment options depending on the severity. Some are as simple as watching and monitoring the symptoms, Medications, and then there are some surgical procedures.\n\nIf you are having trouble I would suggest consulting a Urologist. BPH commonly affects men 55 years of age or older, however there have been an increased number of cases in younger men.

Make sure that your only problem is prostate enlargement.  Get your PSA blood work done.  Your family doc may prescribe a med that will help shrink the prostate if there are no other problems.  Make sure you check out all possibilities of prostate cancer.  My husband didn't, and he has prostate cancer which has spread to his bones.  \n\nGood luck with all of this.

The whole Maxman group is bogus.  They are just selling an herbal supplement.  Now they admit that they won't provide miracles, but I want to emphasis that nothing they are providing will has really been tested to show any real results.  I would recommend a multi vitamin, healthy diet, plenty of exercise, and eliminate any smoking if you want that maximum blood flow to certain parts of your anatomy.

Yes, there is an alternative solution. Go for a manual one-time treatment called Atlasprofilax. The effects on all these symptoms are really amazing, even slipped discs will regenerate completely due to a correct pressure distribution in your spine.\n\nJust - the treatment is available in California and Europe only, costing approx. 220 dollars. It's really worth travelling far.

reduce fat fast pills.\n\ntake a lot of water before every meal eat light popcorns or instead you could try celery \n\nAccording to Hippocrates (the father of medicine), celery calms the nerve – perhaps because of the high calcium content. It’s good on kidney and will help eliminate body’s waste through the urine.\n\nSome teas help to reduce that difficult areas how about Lemon Grass (Lemongrass) / Cymbopogon citratus

Avodart is a prescription drug that will do it. Ask you physican for a prescription if you have an enlarged prostate. Enlarged prostates are a common problem for elderly males; if yu are not over 50 and have one then you best see a urologist about it. For anyone with an enlarged prostate, seeing a urologist would be a good idea. But Avordart does work; it will reduce the size of the prostate but it takes several months or more of daily use before it has a noticeable effect. You will know when it does in your urine stream.

I had GYNECOMASTIA. for 20 years from someone twisting my left titty.  I quit drinking milk, drank lots of water, and use apple cider vinegar every day. I can't say this is what cured my male breast but it is now the same as the other side.

pumps (omg the penis is bigger after being pumped lmao yeah he just lost wood of course it is) and pills are all a gag... surgery is expensive as hell and you cannot have sex afterward for like 6-12mo and risk being impotent for the rest of your life if they slip up and even then risk getting the porn cock that sticks out limp.\nVitamin B and zinc improve bloodflow and you can try kegel exercises (flexing for 5 count and realeasing for a 5 count repeating) for 5 min a few times a day

Though men taking saw palmetto may develop mild nausea, reduced libido, or erectile dysfunction, the rate of such problems is clinically and statistically far less common than in men taking drugs to treat BPH symptoms, based on the JAMA meta-analysis cited above. There are no known drug interactions. It should generally be avoided in pregnancy and lactation and in small children due to lack of experience and knowledge in these populations and because of the purely theoretical risk of hormonal interference.\n\nWhile saw palmetto is generally considered safe, one of its primary active ingredients, beta-sitosterol, is chemically similar to cholesterol. High levels of sitosterol concentrations in blood have been correlated with increased severity of heart disease in men who have previously suffered from heart attacks [6].\n\nIt has also been used as a herbal treatment for baldness.
