The prostate is not the whole pelvis

The prostate sits below the bladder and contributes fluid to semen. Bladder, urethral and pelvic muscle problems can create overlapping symptoms. A symptom near the prostate does not automatically establish prostate disease, and a traditional pressure technique cannot make that distinction.
