[QUOTE="DragonBits, post: 130693, member: 18023"] The prostate goes through two main growth periods as a man ages. The first occurs early in puberty, when the prostate doubles in size. The second phase of growth begins around age 25 and continues during most of a man’s life. Benign prostatic hyperplasia often occurs with the second growth phase. Benign prostatic hyperplasia affects about 50 percent of men between the ages of 51 and 60 and up to 90 percent of men older than 80.2 [URL="https://www.niddk.nih.gov/health-information/urologic-diseases/prostate-problems/prostate-enlargement-benign-prostatic-hyperplasia"]Prostate Enlargement (Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia) | NIDDK[/URL] Before puberty the prostate if very small, but teenagers' prostates double in size, if that kept up they would have BPH by the time they were 25. They don't get BPH because they start out very, very small. Kind of like why teenagers aren't as strong as men age 25, your strength does't peak till at least age 25. BTW, if someone is castrated before puberty they never get BPH. [/QUOTE]
