Feeling Strong Urge to Go, But Only a Few Drops Come Out

Your prostate is a gland that rests below your bladder and in front of your rectum. The main function of the prostate is to produce seminal fluid, which nourishes and transports sperm, combining with it to create semen. This makes the gland crucial for reproductive health, but it also helps control urine flow. The prostate is about the size of a walnut, and it surrounds part of your urethra which is a tube that carries urine out of your body. If your prostate grows in size, it can cause blockage in your urethra. As a result, you can have difficulty in starting to urinate. You may have to push and strain to get the urine to flow out. There may be weak or interrupted urine stream, and dribbling after urination. You may experience sudden and strong urge to urinate throughout the day. There may be inability to hold your urine. It can become a nuisance when you are going out as you have to make sure there is a bathroom closeby when the urge to urinate strikes. A common complaint with men with enlarged prostate is inability to fully empty your bladder. Also, there may also be pain with urination. At night, you may have to get up several times to use the bathroom. Enlarged prostate is one of the most common reasons for PSA levels to be high. PSA stands for prostate specific antigen. The larger the prostate, the more PSA it produces. From the perspective of Traditional Chinese Medicine, prostate enlargement is due to weakened kidney energy which can be caused by aging and overwork. Also contributing to the condition if liver energy stagnation which can arise due to stress, anger, frustration, resentment and repressed emotions. According to Ayurveda, prostate issues arise from blockages in the reproductive tissues and due to accumulation of toxic waste in the area of the prostate gland. Good digestion is vital for tissues to be created and to prevent the formation and accumulation of toxic matter. Toxic waste is a sticky, unhealthy mass that can clog the channels and create imbalance in the body. Toxic waste is formed through incomplete digestion or from digestive disorders resulting from weak digestive fire. When digestive fire is strong food is digested and absorbed providing nourishment for all. Due to its location in the body, the prostate is vulnerable to toxins and environmental toxins (pesticides, chemicals, electromagnetic radiation) that have accumulated in the urinary system and the colon.
