Prostate iron is the center of the formation of male sex hormones, which allows men to conform to this word and feel the men. The glandular tissue of the prostate produces prostatic fluid - the secret of the prostate and sex hormones.
Inflammation of the prostate gland often leads to impaired sexual function, has a negative effect on the process of formation of male germ cells - spermatogenesis. Sex hormone protects men not only from the male inability, but also prevents the development of atherosclerosis and myocardial infarction, peptic ulcer disease of stomach and duodenum.
