The prostate is a small gland of the male reproductive system found in most mammals, but anatomically, physiologically, and chemically it differs substantially among species. In humans, the prostate gland is usually about the size of a walnut and it’s found below the bladder, in front of the rectum, and surrounds partly the tube (urethra) in the penis that leads pee from the bladder.
The main function of the prostate is to secrete a fluid, which is milky or white in aspect, that in humans usually contains about 30% of the volume of semen along with spermatozoa and so-called seminal vesicle fluid. Prostatic fluid is expelled in the first part of ejaculation, together with most of the sperm. The prostate also has some muscles that help excrete semen during ejaculation.

On aging (particularly men over 50), the prostate can become larger, which is a normal process of aging for most men. Because the prostate surrounds part of the urethra, it can start to squeeze the tube. This can cause problems when trying to pee, or feeling the urge to pee very often (and very little with dribbling). Typical classical treatment solutions might be medicines, lifestyle changes, or surgery.
Two other main problems that may arise with the prostate are firstly so-called Prostatitis, which is an infection or inflammation of the prostate and can cause trouble urinating, chills and fever, or sexual problems (for instance pain in the genitals or pain when ejaculating), and secondly — prostate cancer.
In Thailand, there are some ancient treatments used to alleviate or even cure prostate health issues. Let’s take a look at some of the typical Thai traditional treatment solutions.
