[QUOTE="Jeffrey Becker, post: 4935, member: 266"] The issue of venous problems may contribute to a variety of age-related problems with the male reproductive system: [URL="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18811916"][B]Reversal of benign prostate hyperplasia by selective occlusion of impaired venous drainage in the male reproductive system: novel mechanism, new treatment[/B][/URL] [B]Abstract[/B] The prostate is an androgen-regulated exocrine gland producing over 30% of the noncellular components of the semen and promoting optimal conditions for survival and motility of sperm in the vagina.
