IS MY PROSTATE DESTINED TO BECOME WEAK!

This is a bit uncouth but anyway...

I was talking to friend recently and both seem to have the same experiances when going to the loo in a pub or club. We are inevitably at the urinal for a far shorter time than those chaps that are older than us.

Now i like to think i've got reasonably powerful bladder control and do not always go to the loo when i have a vague inclining to do so, so i tend to go when i really need to, so i dont think wee retention is a problem.

Me and my good friend are both 20 so do protrates degrade at such a rate that soon we will be having to force our wee and taking aaaages at t'urinal. have any lithers noticed their prostrates are less powerful as they get older?

No, it'll be another, ooh, five decades before your prostates expand to the extent that they obstruct your urethras.

It's 'prostate', BTW, not 'prostrate'.

My weeing is just fine, thank you -- strength of such weeing being in direct proportion to how much water or soda I've imbibed.

That depends on just how weak it is.

That is my gift and my curse.

Why do they swell up to begin with? Seems like a design flaw.

Age. Which is a design flaw.

Does anyone know of the effiacy or otherwise of exercises designed to strengthen it? I picked up a few tips in martial arts and I've always wondered if these well prevent it, I dunno, falling out on the bus when I'm hold. Tips are just generally tensing it a few times while in a yoga type low strech. I also tried some Taoist Chi Gung type exercises, moving "energy" around, which were preceded by a month of so of tenseing and releasing a couple of times a day. The exercise as a whole had some odd effects in the end. Does anyone know if these type exercises might have any long term health benefits? Doesn't seem too wild a hypothesis. Perhaps we should have a prostate wrestling competion next time we're in the pub?

Well... it's a gland. No muscle tissue involved. Difficult to know what to tense.

Oh synchronisity, you un-funny bitch.

Just came back from the Doctor's office. What they thought was kidney stones may, in fact, be a prostate problem.

And I'm only 26.

Send your sympathies on a postcard...
 
 
Ganesh

Hmm, unusual. Has he, erm, examined it?
 
 
Warewullf
19:59 / 25.08.04
Nope. They haven't said that was definitely the problem, but it was the next thing to check out. They're doing a blood test.

I suspect rubber-glove hilarity is only weeks away!

It's a pain in the arse, right enough.

These to links suggest that excercise, vegetables, and Sex are all vital factors in maintaining a healthy prostate. So if you are worried, try getting those three things every day.

Those are all supposed to stop it becoming cancerous (as does vigorous wanking in one's twenties, studies have shown) - but they won't stop it becoming 'benignly' enlarged with age.

Woohoo!

Wait, wanking myself?

Ah, either way...

Ah, masturbation. Is there nothing it can't do?

Ideally, more than five times a week.

Get wanking, twentysomethings...

Or five times per thread, if the fucking bandwidth goblins decide they hate you...
