Homeopathic Indications: This product and guide together are designed and formulated to help with the inability to sleep through the night without having to get up to urinate; for frequent and/or painful urination, slow or diminished urine stream, and difficulty voiding completely. About the prostate The prostate is a tubuloalveolar exocrine gland that is part of the male reproductive system. About the size of a walnut, it surrounds the tube called the urethra located just below the bladder. The urethra has two jobs- to carry urine from the bladder during urination, and to carry semen during ejaculation. The male urinary tract Because the prostate surrounds the urethra, urinary tract function can be impacted by any change in the size of the prostate gland. Men over 40 frequently complain of an inability to get a good night's sleep due to frequent urination throughout the night and early morning hours. The frequent need to urinate is often accompanied by a feeling of not being able to void completely, leaving the bladder still feeling full. These symptoms can be related to prostate enlargement. Pressure from an enlarged prostate can affect bladder control and the urination process.
