Question

An enlarged prostate could cause which of the following to occur?

Reduced testosterone release due to a constricted urethra
Reduced testosterone release due to a constricted vas deferens
Reduced semen ejaculation due to a constricted urethra
Reduced semen ejaculation due to a constricted vas deferens

Answer 1

The correct answer is option A, Reduced testosterone release due to a constricted urethra

Step-by-step explanation:

The Urethra is a hollow tube which carries the urine and testosterone and is surrounded by the prostate gland. When the size of prostate gland increases, it force the urethra inwards and reduces its size. This sometimes lead to the blocking of urethra in severe cases. Blocking of urethra leads to restricted urination and release of testosterone.
