Prostate disorders refer to various medical conditions affecting the prostate gland, a small gland located below the bladder in men. Common disorders include benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), which is an enlargement of the prostate that can cause urinary difficulties, and prostatitis, an inflammation of the prostate that may lead to pain and discomfort. Another significant condition is prostate cancer, which occurs when cells in the prostate grow uncontrollably. Early detection through screening methods, such as the PSA test, is crucial for effective treatment. Understanding these disorders can help in managing symptoms and improving overall health.
