Male pelvic health goes beyond prostate problems.
- Bladder: Responsible for storing and releasing urine.
- Prostate: A gland that produces seminal fluid, which nourishes and transports sperm.
- Rectum: The final portion of the large intestine, responsible for storing and expelling feces.
- Pelvic floor muscles: A group of muscles that provide support to the pelvic organs and help control bowel and bladder functions.
- Urethra: A tube that carries urine from the bladder and semen from the reproductive system out of the body.
- Urinary continence
- Sexual function
- Bowel function
- Prostate health
- Reproductive health
Men can have specific conditions related to the pelvic region that can affect their overall health. Common conditions include bladder and voiding dysfunctions, chronic pelvic pain, testicular pain and sexual health concerns. The male pelvic floor is a complex structure formed by several muscles. These muscles make up the bottom of the pelvis and support the pelvic organs. They’re the muscles that relax when you are urinating, passing gas or having a bowel movement. You also use these muscles to hold in your urine, prevent urine leakage and avoid what we call male voiding disorder. These same muscles also affect sexual function. Maintaining pelvic health is essential for overall wellness. At Prevea, our experts specialize in the treatment and management of a wide array of disorders and conditions, including:
