THE POSTRATE GLAND
The postrate gland is the size of a walnut and weighs about 20grams. It's job is to make the seminal fluid which is stored in the seminal vesicles. During sexual in*******se, seminal fluid comes down the urethra and mixes with the s***ms produced in the testicles to form the semen. So semen technically is not s***m. It is s***m + seminal fluid. The seminal fluid lubricates the s***m.
After age 40, for reasons that may be hormonal, the prostate gland begin to enlarge. From 20grams it may grow almost to 100grams. As it enlarges, it squeezes the urethra and the man begin to notice changes in the way he urinates.
If you have a son under 10, if he has a little mischief like we all did at that age, when he comes out to urinate, he can target the ceiling and the jet will hit the target. Call the father to do same, wahala dey. His urine stream is weak, cannot travel a long distance and sometimes may come straight down on his legs. So he may need to stand in awkward position to urinate.
Not many men will be worried their urine stream cannot hit the ceiling. Toilet are on the floor and cannot hit the ceiling. But other symptoms begin to show.
TERMINAL DRIPPING:
The man begin to notice that after urinating and repacking, urine still drop on his pants.
This is the reason why after an older man urinates, he has to ring bell *smiles*. A younger man simply deliver to the last drop and walks away.
Just see an older man coming out of the bathroom. Sometimes he might clutch the newspaper closely to hide the urinate stains, particularly on plain coloured trousers.
HESISTENCY
At this point you wait longer for the urine flow to start. There are 2 valves that must open for you to urinate -- the internal and external sphincters. Both open but because of obstructions in the urethra, you wait longer for the flow to start.
INCOMPLETE EMPTYING
You have this feeling immediately after urinating that there is still something left.
