In this book, Dr Debled explains his
experience of androgenic disease, which he
described over fifty years ago, and the
treatment of its impact on prostate
diseases.
The prostate is not just a gland. It is a
muscular mass in which there are glands. The
function of this muscular mass is to open
the bladder outlet and the posterior urethra
during urination. Secretions from the
prostate glands make up a small part of the
volume of spermatic fluid.
The functions of the prostate depend on the
correct secretion of the exact sex hormone,
dihydrotestosterone, which stimulates
prostate secretion. This hormone is also
necessary for the proper function of the
prostatic musculature, which opens the
bladder outlet during urination.
The ageing of the prostate announces sexual
ageing due to a lack of dihydrotestosterone
and future general ageing diseases, which
are the consequences of the androgenic
disease of andropause resulting from a
reduction in the production of androgens.
The abnormal biology of the prostate after
the age of forty can be quantified.
Correcting these abnormal parameters
prevents sclerosis and adenoma and can
stabilise prostate structures, delaying the
onset of cancer.
