For a normal person, the volume of the prostate gland is usually less than 20 milliliters, with a size of 3 centimeters in longitudinal diameter, 4 centimeters in transverse diameter, and 2 centimeters in anterior and posterior diameter.
The prostate is one of the smaller organs in the human body, weighing about 20 grams, and it is the largest substantial organ in the male genitalia among the accessory glands. It is composed of both muscle tissue and prostate tissue, and is located between the bladder and the urogenital compartment, in a relatively hidden location.
An increase in the size of the prostate indicates that inflammation, hyperplasia, and tumors may be present in the prostate, all of which may be associated with difficulty in urination and painful urination and need to be closely monitored.
The importance of the prostate gland is self-evident to men, who need to wash their pubic area effectively in their daily life, avoid unclean sex and long-term masturbation.
