Why do some male friends have hyperplasia? To answer this question, we have to start with a basic function of the prostate.
It is understood that the male prostate can convert the testosterone produced by the testicles into dihydrotestosterone with more physiological activity, and then transmit dihydrotestosterone throughout the body through the blood circulation system. As a "derivative" of male hormones, dihydrotestosterone plays a crucial role in promoting the maintenance of sexual desire, penis erection and other basic physiological functions of men.
To put it bluntly: middle-aged and elderly men, the better their physique, usually have relatively strong demand for sexual life; The requirements for maintaining sexual desire and erecting penis are usually relatively high; The demand for dihydrotestosterone is also relatively large; The requirements for the function of prostate transforming dihydrotestosterone are usually relatively high.
As we all know, aging and necrosis will inevitably occur in any organ and tissue of the human body with the growth of age, and the prostate is no exception. With the aging and necrosis of the prostate, the function of the prostate to convert dihydrotestosterone will inevitably be partially or even completely lost.
At this time, in order to ensure normal sexual desire, normal penis erection and normal sexual life, the prostate will make up for its lost function of transforming dihydrotestosterone by growing an extra part. In this way, prostatic hyperplasia is naturally unavoidable.
