Allen Gelbl - Affected by a Sudden Urge to Pee? By : Allen Gelbl While there is no solid research on what might be the cause of the enlarged prostate, there is some relation to the presence of hormones. For instance, men who have had their testicles removed due injury or trauma do not have this problem. If you think that the an enlarged prostate might be part of the problem that you are experiencing, you'll find that along with a sudden urge to urinate, there are several other symptoms that you might be experiencing. Allen Gelbl - Alternative Treatment For Enlarged Prostates By : Allen Gelbl Although the condition of an enlarged prostate, also commonly known as benign prostate hyperplasia, is one that affects many men. When the prostate gland starts to enlarge, this puts pressure on the urethra, squeezing it more tightly and and forcing the bladder muscle to become thickened and more sensitive. This can lead to a number of different, unpleasant symptoms, including the increased urge to urinate, as well as a difficulty in maintaining the force of the urine stream. Allen Gelbl - Causes of Frequent Urination in Men By : Allen Gelbl Always having to go or feeling the need to urinate more often than is usual is called frequent urination. This differs from urgent urination which is an urgent, compelling need to urinate. This can be accompanied with bladder discomfort. Allen Gelbl - Dealing With a Weak Urine Stream By : Allen Gelbl If you notice that you are experiencing hesitation or delay when it comes to urination, you should start thinking about the causes and what you can do about it as soon as possible. It can be hard to detect, as it comes on gradually, and it may be a small problem for years before you think to have it treated. If this condition is left untreated, you'll find that it can even result in full urinary retention, where the individual finds himself unable to urinate at all. Because this later problem is a direct result of the former situation and because it can result in bladder discomfort and distention, the sooner you get this problem treated the better. Allen Gelbl - Enlarged Prostate Alternative Medicine By : Allen Gelbl If you are diagnosed with an enlarged prostate, the doctor will go over several treatment options. If your condition is not severe, then prescription medications can be very effective. He or she will prescribe one type of medicine to start shrinking the prostate, and a second medicine to relax the muscles and take the pain away. Allen Gelbl - Enlarged Prostate Causes By : Allen Gelbl The prostate gland is slightly larger than a peanut and is located snug in between the urethra and the pubic bone. As the prostate grows, the bladder has to work more in order to push urine through the newly thinned urethra. The muscles of the bladder become overworked and therefore more sensitive. This causes the person affected to have to urinate more frequently. As the prostate grows and places pressure on the already sensitive bladder, the bladder begins to lose the ability to empty itself completely. Allen Gelbl - Enlarged Prostate Causes and Risk Factors By : Allen Gelbl The prostate gland is a walnut sized gland that wraps around the urethra between the pelvic bone and the rectum. It secretes a fluid that is used to carry sperm cells. Since it surrounds the urethra, which carries urine, it has a direct effect on urination. As the prostate gland enlarges, pressure is exerted on the urethra and problems may arise concerning urination. Allen Gelbl - Enlarged Prostate Diagnosis By : Allen Gelbl A normal prostate is slightly larger than a peanut and weighs around 20 to 30 grams. A swollen prostate can weigh anywhere from 50 to 100 grams. It should also be stated that prostatic hyperplasia is not a sign of prostate cancer. When you go in to the doctor to determine if you have an enlarged prostate, before the doctor can diagnose you they will test you for numerous things to make sure that it is prostatic hyperplasia instead of cancer. Allen Gelbl - Enlarged Prostate Factors By : Allen Gelbl It is known that men produce a male hormone called testosterone, which is also the most important chemical in their body. Men also produce a very small amount of the female hormone estrogen. As a man ages, his amounts of active testosterone will decrease. The ending result is a higher level of estrogen. Some research studies have shown that when there is a higher amount of estrogen, it might promote more growth of cells in the prostate, which later results in BPH. There is another theory that suggests that when dihydrotestosterone accumulates within the prostate, cell growth is also promoted. Allen Gelbl - Enlarged Prostate Tests By : Allen Gelbl Understanding what the prostate is will help you understand your condition as well. The prostate is very small, almost the size of a nickel. It is located near the base of your bladder. It is the gland that produces the white secretion that later makes the semen. The secretions from the prostate help to nourish the sperm when it is ejaculated from your body. Allen Gelbl - Side Effects of Popular Enlarged Prostate Medications By : Allen Gelbl If the enlargement is not severe, doctors will normally suggest medicines first, or an alternative treatment, without considering the use of surgery. Prescription medication to help improve the urine flow is usually prescribed to men with an enlarged prostate. These are also called alpha-blockers, and they act by relaxing the bladder. Some of the commercial brands have been found to cause eye disorders and are not recommended for men who are planning eye surgery or have undergone eye surgery. Allen Gelbl - Studies Show Lycopene is Ineffective For Enlarged Prostate By : Allen Gelbl However, one of these natural remedies or treatments is known as saw palmetto. Scientifically, saw palmetto has the ingredient known as Lycopene. When men suffer from BPH or benign prostate hypertrophy, which is an enlarged prostate, the approach of natural treatments can sometimes be in vain. Allen Gelbl - Trouble Starting Urine? By : Allen Gelbl There are several reasons which may be related to why a man's prostate will enlarge when he gets older. This is a condition that is most often seen in older men, around the age of forty, though men of all ages have been known to develop this condition. This is a very common condition, and should not be a source of embarrassment. As a matter of fact, it is worth noting that some professionals will say that all men will have an enlarged prostate if they live long enough, and according to several studies, it is a condition that is common to roughly 90% of men over the age 80. Allen Gelbl - Why Does an Enlarged Prostate Cause Urinary Discomfort? By : Allen Gelbl One of the major causes of an enlarged prostate is age. Most men will encounter some form of an enlarged prostate after they are over the age of 40. The only difference is that other men experience a worse condition than others. Diet and lifestyle also plays an important role in the risk of getting an enlarged prostate. Alcohol has been said to increase the cell count in the prostate which means a larger amount of tissue in the gland. Allen Gelbl - Why Saw Palmetto Is Not Effective Against Enlarged Prostate By : Allen Gelbl Saw palmetto is a small palm tree, also known as the American Dwarf Palm, which is usually found in the Southeastern areas of the United States. The tree has small seeds that have been thought to help cure an enlarged prostate. Research has proven that close to 2 million men in the United States use saw palmetto with hopes that it will improve their prostate. In earlier studies, saw palmetto proved to be effective in the treatment of an enlarged prostate. However, in a more recent and more controlled trial, a double blind placebo failed to show any effects of saw palmetto on the symptoms of benign prostatic hypertrophy.

Amy Nutt - Acne Treatments: Don’t Settle For Dry Skin By : Amy Nutt Two of the biggest issues with acne are the overproduction of sebum (the oily substance that blocks the pores and leaves the skin feeling greasy) and the bacteria known as Propionibacterium acnes. This bacterium causes inflammation and produces enzymes that break down the sebum into an irritating substance. The result is red, swollen skin and ugly pimples. Amy Nutt - Combat Acne: The Natural Way By : Amy Nutt Doctors say that diet doesn't cause acne and this may be true. However, for anyone who is already struggling with skin breakouts, what you eat can and will aggravate your problem.

Amy Nutt - Confessions Of A Plastic Surgeon By : Amy Nutt One of the many ironies of this job are the customers who come in with magazines, wanting to look like this or that celebrity.

Those photographs are professionally lighted, digitally touched up and feature models with a lot of makeup on. And then these 40-year old housewives show up at my office wanting to look like Gisele. And I look them in the eye, and with the utmost sincerity I tell them, “Honey, if you latch on to a preconceived image that’s beyond what’s realistic, you’re not going to be satisfied.” And they blink their big, round eyes at me, and nod. Amy Nutt - Contact Lenses And Water Don’t Mix By : Amy Nutt It’s never a good idea to swim with your contact lenses in. In fact, it could be very bad for your eyes.

And Sports Injury Rehabilitation By : Amy Nutt It has long been known that EMS devices are effective in rehab environments.

Amy Nutt - Types Of Contact Lenses By : Amy Nutt 1. PMMA lenses, which are also called hard contact lenses are the oldest that are around. Believe it or not they have been around since the 1960s. They are made from polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA). These contacts are very durable, but their disadvantage is the fact that they do not allow oxygen to reach the cornea directly. The oxygen is received in the cornea when the wearer blinks and oxygen-rich tears reach the cornea due to the movement of the lens. They are of low cost, but they are hardly used anymore. Amy Nutt - What You Need To Know About Contact Lenses By : Amy Nutt There are three main types of contact lenses, hard, soft and disposable. Hard contact lenses are rigid and can be more irritating to the eye, but they do last a lot longer, up to three years. Soft contact lenses are easier on the eye and can be worn for longer periods of time. They are usually replaced after a year or so of use.

These are the cheapest types of lenses, but they are usually not specifically made for your eyes, which can cause issues.
