Caffeine and stimulants can cause prostate problems

Benign Prostate Enlargement (BPE) is a condition where the prostate gland located under the pelvis and surrounding a duct through which men urinate can become inflated and cause discomfort. This can lead to poor bladder control and Erectile Dysfunction (ED).

This can be caused by high intake of caffeine like coffee or soda. Cold and allergy medicine which contains anti histamine (ephedrine) can also cause this. They both causes your prostate to enlarge.

Try reducing intake of the above and see if you prostate problem is reduced. I also found that illegal stimulants like Ecstasy (MDMA), Amphetamine, Meth Amphetamine (Syabu) also causes ED, probably through some effect on the prostate as well as the central nervous system.

I now try to eliminate or reduce the intake of the above to have a healthy sex life as well as a healthy heart.
