Condition analysis:
Prostatitis is a term used for describing the prostate infection. Since women do not have a prostate gland, it is a condition only found in men. These infections are usually caused by the bacteria, but there is also a nonbacterial form of the disease.

There are several risk factors associated with the prostate infection and the most common include the following: recent urinary tract infection, prior sexually transmitted diseases such as gonorrhea or chlamidia, smoking, excess alcohol consumption and others.

Prostatitis is the most common genitourinary infection in men under the age of 50. Problem is that, although this infection isn't too serious, if left untreated, it can spread to other structures such as testicles and epididymis and, in severe cases, destroy the prostate gland.

Instructions:
Flaxseeds
Flaxseeds contain plant-based omega-3 fatty acids, fiber and lignans. Lignans can help balance the conversion of testosterone to DHT, the more potent form of testosterone. Elevated levels of DHT are contributed to abnormal prostate growth, leading to BPH. Lignan in flaxseed not only bring temporary relief to urinary complaints associated with BPH but also help reduce prostate pain and prostate size.

Epilobium
Epilobium contains 2 beneficial Polyphenols that helps inhibit the conversion of testosterone to DHT by the 5-Alpha Reductase enzyme and aromatase. This mechanism provides Epilobium the ability to reverse enlarged prostate.

Saw Palmetto berry
Saw Palmetto berry helps men with enlarged prostate symptom (BPH - Benign prostatic hyperplasia) that caused by noncancerous cysts. It may help decreasing the size of the prostate (by over 60% for some patients), reducing prostate pain, and helping the prostate function more effectively.
