Prostate Massage And Milking The Prostate - How To Milk The Prostate - Nurse's Guide

Prostate massage and prostate milking are both commonly used terms to describe the massage or stimulation of the prostate gland either for medical or sexual reasons. Both terms are frequently used when the purpose is the relief of the symptoms of chronic prostatitis by a doctor and prostate milking or milking the prostate is used more often when the purpose is draining prostatic fluid during sexual activity to achieve a specific effect. Both can be performed internally or externally, but I will describe the internal technique here.

The prostate gland is just one part of the complex male reproductive system. It produces seminal fluid and functions in the process of ejaculation and orgasm. The gland is about the size of a walnut and is positioned directly behind the bladder. It's prone to many conditions and diseases including, acute prostatitis, chronic prostatitis, enlarged prostate or BPH (benign prostatic hypertrophy) and prostate cancer.

The prostate milking technique is as follows (also sometimes prostate massagers or other milking or medical devices are used).

It's best not to attempt this unless you're sure you don't have chronic prostatitis or any other serious condition. It's always preferable to be cleared by your doctor first.

1. Gather your equipment together. You'll need sterile non-latex gloves. Do not use latex gloves; serious allergies can develop over time with repeated use. You'll need gloves that won't snag or tear easily from sharp fingernails, etc. You can find these cheaply in any store with a pharmacy or over-the-counter drug section. You'll also need some lubricant that is water-based; you can get this at your pharmacy also if you don't already have some. Don't use oils, lotions or perfume-based lotions; these contain irritants.

2. Check out your fingernails and make sure they are clipped and/or filed smoothly and won't snag the gloves.

3. Take a trip to the bathroom and completely empty your bladder and bowels. This will help you relax more and will lessen the chance of an accident. Wash the area around your anus thoroughly to avoid any transfer of organisms. Wash your hands thoroughly and scrub them with a nail brush.

4. Get into a comfortable position, usually on the back or side. Put on one of the sterile gloves. You can use gloves on both hands if you like. Put a little of the lubricant on the fingers of the gloves you're going to use.

5. Gently insert one or more fingers - better to start with one until you know what you're doing. Be very careful if you have hemorrhoids. If that's the case you may want to have them checked out by your doctor first. Move you finger slowly up the wall of the rectum, until you can feel the prostate gland. Be very gentle. No forcing or pushing. The gland will feel like a small ball.

6. Carefully and gently stroke or massage the gland along the sides only with your finger tips, not fingernails. You don't want to touch the center or the top where there are many sensitive nerves and where you could do some damage.

7. Note the time. You should do this for only a few minutes. You may experience some odd feelings or sensations. And you may feel like you have to go to the bathroom but that should pass. Once the gland has contracted it will release some seminal fluid. You may or may not experience sexual pleasure, orgasm or ejaculation; this varies from person to person.

8. Carefully take off the gloves to avoid contamination and dispose of the gloves - they are no longer sterile and can't be cleaned properly. Wash your hands thoroughly using a nail brush.

Prostate milking or prostate massage has been practiced by prostate specialists for many years for specific medical conditions. It's controversial however. Although many men have been using this technique, there are risks involved. If you have any known or hidden condition or infection or inflammation of the prostate it's possible to cause a serious systemic infection. The best approach is to get thoroughly checked out by your doctor first before you proceed.

The Benefits of Prostate Massage

Prostate massage is a healthy and pleasurable activity that can be enjoyed as part of your intimate life. Quite simply, prostate massage stimulates the prostate with a finger or massage tool with the intention of relaxation and/or pleasure. This is an intimate skill that can be learned and shared by lovers in the privacy of their own home.

The prostate is a gland, located just below the bladder and sheathed in the musculature of the pelvic floor, the same muscles that contract during orgasm and ejaculation. The urethra runs from the bladder, directly through the prostate gland and out through the penis. The prostate gland plays a central role in the male sexual system. Within the gland, tiny ducts called acini produce prostatic fluid. This fluid mixes with sperm and fluid from the seminal vesicles to become the male ejaculate. Prostate health is essential for lifelong sexual pleasure and function.

Regular ejaculations keep the prostate healthy by stimulating production of fresh prostatic fluid and bringing fresh blood to the area. Fresh blood flow brings the nutrients and oxygen cells needed to remain healthy and replicate normally. White blood cells are immune-system powerhouses, fighting infections at the cellular level. The prostate is more likely to become infected or cancerous when blood flow is constricted from muscular tension and lack of stimulation.

Prostate massage manually stimulates the prostate gland, flushing fluid from the gland and encouraging blood flow to the entire pelvis. This can be a highly stimulating or profoundly relaxing experience. As an added bonus, releasing chronic constriction in the pelvis can enhance erections by allowing more blood flow into the penis during arousal. Some men notice dramatic changes in their erectile function after exploring prostate massage. In fact, up to two-thirds of a man's penis can be situated internally. Sometimes, erections become weaker or smaller overtime because chronic constriction in the pelvic muscles limit blood flow to the penis and keep the penis contracted inside the body. Massage of the perineum and prostate can allow these muscles to relax, and a higher volume of blood can reach the penis.

Prostate massage is only one part of a healthy lifestyle. You may be hearing a lot about things like lycopene and phytoestrogens- plant compounds that are currently a hot topic in medical research. Studies are taking a close look at the exact actions and potential of food-based compounds and the early findings are very promising. Prostate health is supported by those foods with anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer and hormone balancing properties. A healthy diet that includes fresh fruits and vegetables can go a long way towards supporting lifelong prostate health.

This article is not intended as medical advice or diagnosis. Prostate massage is different from the medical procedure digital rectal exam as performed by a medical professional. If you are experiencing any pain or changes in your pelvis, seek medical assistance. Prostate massage is considered a healthy activity for all men who are not experiencing severe symptoms of a prostate condition.
