Getting to know your prostate better! What does the prostate do?
The prostate manufactures about a third of a males sperm. It also produces an ingredient called PSA or prostate-specific antigen, that prevents sperm from sticking together.

Testicles get all the glory, but they’d be worthless without the prostate.
As a man ages, the prostate grows, as a result, the prostate does not produce as much semen. Subsequently, the prostate continues to enlarge with age.
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) — also called prostate gland enlargement is a common condition as a man gets older.

Prostatic massage is thought to help clear the prostatic duct. This duct, or pipeline, runs between your prostate and the rest of your reproductive and urinary system. Therefore, massaging this area may produce a spontaneous secretion of fluid. Finally, this secretion may help clear this duct of any fluids. This could help eliminate any symptoms you’re experiencing.
