Prostate herbal remedies are categorised into two sections: One is for the health of the prostate and the other for treating cancerous prostate, prostatis and other respective diseases of the gland. The first category of medicines claim of having natural ingredients that keep the health of the prostate intact so that once a man reaches the stage of 45 or above, he doesn’t face any problems like prostatis or other diseases like cancer. The medicines claim to have natural ingredients that help in building the prostate gland stronger to resist infections and other ailments.

The herbal remedies for prostate cancer and other diseases have medicinal affects to cure them naturally. The prostate herbal remedies also assert the fact that they can cure all kinds of prostate diseases without any side effects and have been successful in many cases.

But, the story is different for the FDA, which strictly warns the people to take these medicines since the herbal medicines contain such elements that are not FDA approved and are not fit for the body. They may have some side effects which may not be visible at the early stage but at the later stage, they come up abruptly, creating lots of trouble to your health. Some of the side effects may be blood clotting in the veins, loss of libido and alike. They also have been said to use PC-SPES, a supplement that is banned by the FDA.

That’s why, if you decide to go for such herbal remedies for prostate health or treatment, you should consult a doctor and take them if he or she recommends you a particular kind.

One such product is the super prostate formula. This medicine pack contains all the necessary ingredients to take care of your prostate’s health. It has been said that the formula has been approved by the doctors and also assures a healthy prostate that would resist the growth of any cancer cells in future.

The manufacturers are so sure about their product that they have offered money back scheme along with the promotion. They are sure that the medicine will help the people in keeping the health of their prostate intact and their susceptibility to get the diseases will reduce.

There are various treatments for this cancer and they are applied based on complete diagnosis and evaluation by the doctors. One of the treatments is called prostate cancer hormone therapy. It’s used to stop the growth of the cancer cells and shrink them to death by starvation.

Once the cancer cells start growing in the prostate, they need the help of a hormone called dihydrotestoterone (DHT). This hormone is produced by prostate gland and acts as a food for the cancer cells to grow and multiply. On the basis of this theory, hormone treatment is applied for treating prostate cancer by stopping the supply of the required hormone to the cancer cells.

In prostate cancer hormone therapy, medications or other surgical methods are applied to block the supply of the DHT to the cancer cells. This in turn keeps the cells starved. As a result, they cannot grow and ultimately die due to shrinking. In the hormonal therapy, the path of producing the hormone DHT is disturbed and as a result it becomes deficient for the cancer cells. The surgery carried out for hormone therapy is called orchiotectomy where testicles are removed that helps in synthesizes of DHT. And, medications include antiandrogens like flutaminde that blocks the passage of the testoterones.

But this method of treatment is not that much effective in the sense that after one or two years, the cells become adaptive and are able to grow without the help of the DHT. Hence, the hormonal theory is applicable to those patients undergoing radiation therapy so that the cancer cells don’t come back again.

Nowadays, it’s used for many common problems like kidney removal, gall bladder, prostate surgery and alike. Laparoscopic surgery also uses carbon dioxide gas that is used to inflate the abdomen or the surrounding areas for a clear view of the gland to be operated. There are many advantages of laproscopic surgery over regular surgery. They are:

·          Small incisions for the operation which means less blood loss.

·          Quick healing of the cut.

·          Less post operative pain.

·          Fast discharge from hospital and normal activities.

·          Normal diet after two or three days.

Presently, this form of surgery is also used for prostate cancer where the prostate gland is operated out so that the cancer cells cannot spread further. The advantage of laparoscopic surgery in case of cancer is that the surgery removes the complete cancer cells effectively.

But, laparoscopic surgeries have some disadvantages as well. The electrodes inserted to carry the surgery may give unseen electric shocks to surrounding tissues and burn them. Its very rare but may happen due to some carelessness. Secondly, the coagulation of blood has some problems if the patient has had any other open surgery earlier.

Whatever may be the disadvantages, they are minimal and can be neglected in favor of the benefits that this kind of surgery offers. More and more advanced techniques have been introduced and today we have the robotic laparoscopic surgery where the work is carried out by machines for more perfection under a team of doctors.

Urine leakage or incontinence (UI): this is a problem very pathetic for persons who undergo such surgery. This means uncontrolled or involuntary urine leakage from the bladder. A person may wet his clothes, bed, furniture without any sense of having urination. The leakage may also happen if he coughs, changes his positions, receive jerks, walking forcefully and alike. This happens due to deficiency of intrinsic urethral sphincter. This band of striated muscles prevent urine from coming out of the bladder. But during the time of surgery, it may be hurt or may be damaged due to which its voluntary control gets lost and the leakages of the urine continues.

Sexual Dysfunction: Now this has many areas of problem. The person may become infertile and the chances are 95 %. This is because the seminal vesicles are cut and the sperms don’t get the medium to survive in the vagina as well as the fluid on which they swim. Secondly the impotency. Though its very rare  yet in that case it is also seen that the person has erectile dysfunction and cannot have sex willingly. These factors also depend on the age of the person. If he is above sixty then the above said is natural to happen but if he is between 45-60 there is a possibility of its happening. It’s like 1 out of 18 cases.

Minor post operative side effects are pain in the abdominal area, pain in the incision area, problem in walking for two or three days and some other problems but they are temporary and are cured with the help of medicines.

According to the World Health Organization, health is defined as the “state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity”, while the report on Men, Ageing and Health of WHO states that the “process of ageing” is the biological progression that is greatly affected by the influence of the environment, disease, and chosen lifestyle.

Three common diseases that might affect men’s prostate are, prostitis, benign prostatic hyperplasia and the most dreaded of all is prostate cancer. The causes of BPH and prostate cancer are not yet identified however; the risk factors had been determined. Age, race, genetic, lifestyle, and diet are the risk factors that might lead to the acquisition of the disease.  The likelihood of older men to acquire these diseases is higher especially is the all the risk factors are present.

Older men who have reached the age of 40 and above are exposed to greater risk of acquiring prostate-related diseases. Research shows that most men who are 50 years old and above are prone to getting benign prostatic hyperplasia while those who are 60 above have a higher predilection to acquire prostate cancer. Men who are 40 above are advised to undergo any prostate exam in order to monitor their prostate health.

Animal fat-rich diet is linked to increase the chances of getting prostate cancer while diet that is high in fruit and vegetables have been fund to decrease the risk of acquiring prostate cancer. Race and genes have been found to expose men of the grater risk of prostate diseases like cancer.

Prostate health is thus very important to maintain since the presence of any factor that will put men in greater risk will affect his health especially his prostate. Because of the need to take care of their prostate health, the U.S. has listed 200,000 instances of doctor visits due to benign prostatic hyperplasia. On the other hand the cases of prostate cancer among American men is increasing every year in spite the presence of recent clinical breakthroughs on prostate.

Disease and ageing may affect the quality of life of men, therefore it is imperative that men should take charge in achieving optimal prostate health so the remaining life years can be enjoyed. Attaining excellent prostate health might be one of the greatest hurdles of American men, but it can be done.
