The prostate is a gland in the male reproductive system located
just below the bladder, in front of the rectum. About the size and
shape of a walnut, the prostate weighs only about one ounce. The
prostate wraps around the urethra, a tube that carried urine from
the bladder and out through the penis. The main purpose of the prostate
is to produce semen, which is squeezed out through the prostate
during orgasm. As men grow older they are more likely to suffer
from prostate diseases and disorders which include inflammation
and enlargement of the prostate gland. While these conditions do
not always lead to the development of prostate cancer, they can
be quite serious and in some cases the symptoms are rather painful.
The most common prostate disease problems are prostatitis, benign
prostatic hyperplasia and prostate cancer. Prostatitis is an inflammation
of the prostate gland. The inflammation can be classified in three
different manners. Acute inflammation of the prostate gland, which
is caused by bacteria and may be accompanied by chills and fever
is known as acute bacterial prostatitis. Other symptoms include
pains in the lower back and rectum. A recurrent infection of the
prostate, which is often associated with chronic urinary infection
is known as chronic bacterial prostatitis. Painful urination and
genital pain may also accompany this form of prostate disease.
A type of prostate disease in which there is no apparent bacterial
infection, but there is inflammation, is known as nonbacterial
prostatitis. The most common symptom of nonbacterial prostatitis
is difficult or painful urination.
Prostate milking is a term which is used to refer to massaging
the prostate gland in order to secrete semen. This process is
sometime used as a medical procedure in order to secrete what
is deemed to be excess fluid from the prostate. Many medical practitioners
feel it is a safe and effective way to treat a condition known
as benign prostate hyperplasia, which is an enlarged prostate.
There is some speculation as to whether a prostate milking should
involve a vigorous or gentle massage, however; most health professionals
recommend a gentle massage in order to conduct a prostate milking
as a vigorous approach has been known to cause serious and life
threatening internal damage. A prostate milking massage can either
be done in a professional medical office or at home. In some cases
a doctor will perform a prostate milking in order to obtain a
sample of prostate fluid for testing purposes. Men who are not
accustomed to this procedure may feel uncomfortable with a prostate
milking. The procedure can also be performed at home and can either
be performed alone or with the assistance of another person. Devices
are marketed for the sole purpose of assisting an individual with
performing his own prostate milking and are commonly called prostate
massagers. In some cases, a spouse or significant other may wish
to assist with a prostate milking. For this type of procedure
the other person inserts their finger into the anus of the male,
finds the prostate gland and massages gently. The prostate gland
is located about two inches inside the rectum on the front wall,
close to the penis. The prostate gland itself is about the size
of a walnut, so it it is usually fairly easy to find. It is best
for a lubricant to be used. Many physicians also recommend that
a condom be used to reduce the risk of introducing bacteria to
the prostate gland. Latex medical gloves are also recommended
as a guard against bacteria introduction.
Some studies indicate that men who masturbate or ejaculate frequently,
more than five times per week, during their twenties suffer from
less instances of prostate gland disorders such as enlarged prostate,
inflammation of the prostate gland and prostate cancer. The publication
of studies has led to a tremendous amount of controversy regarding
prostate milking, as some people have concluded that prostate milking
may be a way to prevent prostate gland disorders, when regular forms
of sexual expression are unavailable or when a man does not wish
to masturbate, possibly for moral reasons. The subject of prostate
milking is extremely controversial, as some people feel it is an
acceptable medical practice while others believe it is no different
from masturbating, which many people find morally unacceptable.
Some men find that a prostate milking is also an erotic form
of sexual interaction and many people believe that a prostate
milking can provide numerous benefits. One common belief is that
a prostate milking will prevent the buildup of semen in the prostate,
thus making it unnecessary for the man to ejaculate at other times.
Men who partake in prostate milking and massage state that the
orgasm is much more intense than an orgasm with traditional sex
or masturbation and it is frequently recommended as a form of
sexual interaction when the other partner is either unavailable
or the male simply does not wish to engage in other forms of sexual
intercourse for whatever reason. Other individuals simply find
a prostate milking to be an excellent form of sexual pleasure
and equate it to manipulation of the female G-spot. At its most
extreme prostate milking is also sometimes used in BDSM relationships
as a way to dominate the male in the relationship.
Generally when prostate milking occurs, the release of the semen
occurs more in flow rather than a regular ejaculation. Some people
recommend masturbation along with prostate milking in order to
increase the amount of semen that is released as well as the intensity
of the pleasure involved.
Individuals who take part in prostate milking should be aware
that there are some health risks involving if the massage is done
too vigorously. If there is any blood present in the fluid that
is expelled, the prostate milking should be stopped immediately
and if the blood returns in the urine or semen, the individual
should seek professional medical help. Individuals should also
be aware of any pain in their lower abdomen, as this may also
be a sign that internal damage has occurred as a result of the
prostate milking.
