The Prostate Gland

[cressida]

Like Pattricia says, unless it's a rampaging nightmare of a Prostate problem it's not something that pops up as an issue until a man is older.

 

I'm in my mid 40s and as far as I know it's still quite happy.

 

To be blunt, most men are more likely to get sexual problems due to narrowing of the blood vessels of the penis due to general cardio-vascular health problems. I think this is the most common cause of erectile dysfunction in men beyond the 30s. Much of this is a lifestyle thing - smoking, poor diet, etc.

 

Also diabetes can have an effect with obese men.

 

Generally, I think it's more likely that you'll find these issues a problem with your prospective partners than Prostate problems.

I'm due to have a prostate biopsy soon. After talking to a few men who have had this procedure i'm not too worried, but none of them were on warfarin as i am. The warfarin is a long term thing owing to a heart condition. I wondered if anyone on the forum new of anyone who has been in a similar situation.
