The prostate is a walnut-sized reproductive gland located just below the bladder and wrapped around the urethra in men, responsible for producing fluid that nourishes and transports sperm.
Key Functions
• Seminal fluid production: Creates a thick fluid that mixes with sperm to form semen.
• Urethral control: Helps push semen through the urethra during ejaculation and closes off the passage from the bladder.
