is the prostate connected to the bladder
Your prostate and bladder: the connection. To understand your urinary problems, it is important to know how the prostate and bladder are connected, and how your prostate cancer treatment affects them both. The prostate gland is normally the size of a walnut but may enlarge as you age. It is located between the bladder and the penis and sits in front of the rectum. The main function of the prostate gland is to produce fluid that nourishes and protects sperm.
