Prostate massage is a massage or stimulation specifically targeted at the male prostate and is mainly used for medical treatment and sexual stimulation. The prostate plays an important role in a man's sexual response and is critical for the production of semen. Due to its proximity to the anterior rectal wall, the prostate can be stimulated through the anterior wall of the rectum or externally through the perineum.
Prostate massage is typically performed by a urologist as part of a digital rectal examination (DRE) to examine nodules for prostate cancer and obtain a sample of prostate secretions for microscopy and microbiological culture.
In the late 1990s, a small group of doctors tried combining prostate massage with antibiotics to treat chronic bacterial prostatitis, but the results were unsatisfactory. Recent trials have also shown that prostate massage produces no improvement compared with antibiotics alone. Therefore, prostate massage is not currently officially recognized by medicine as a treatment for any disease. It is important to note that prostate massage should never be performed in patients with acute prostatitis, as this may spread the infection to other parts of the body.
In the treatment of prostatitis in the 1960s, prostate massage was once the most popular therapy, but it has been eliminated over time and is now less commonly used by the medical community.
Intense prostate massage has the potential to cause damage such as bleeding around the prostate, cellulitis, sepsis, the possibility of prostate cancer spreading, and hemorrhoid attacks and anal fissures.
Electrical stimulation of ejaculation is a procedure that inserts an electrical probe into the rectum and near the prostate to stimulate nerves to cause contraction of the brain and pelvic muscles, thereby triggering ejaculation. This procedure is most common in animal reproduction, however, it may also be used in certain cases of human inability to ejaculate, usually with general anesthesia, and can be used for postmortem sperm retrieval.
Prostate massage is also regarded as a kind of erotic massage in sexual stimulation and is often used to achieve orgasm. The prostate is sometimes called the "male G-spot" or "P-spot." Some men can achieve orgasm through stimulation of the prostate (such as prostate massage or receiving anal sex), and describe feelings that are very similar to how women describe G-spot stimulation. Prostate stimulation sometimes results in intense and powerful orgasms, but all male orgasms (including those through penile stimulation) require contraction of the prostate muscles.
Prostate stimulation can allow some men to achieve orgasm through prostate stimulation alone.
Prostate massagers, or prostate stimulators, are designed to resemble fingers because traditional prostate massage is primarily performed through digital dilation. These massagers usually have slightly curved heads to effectively massage the prostate. It is necessary to use lubricant before entering the anus to avoid damage to the rectal mucosa. It is important to be careful that prostate massagers should not be used too vigorously or without caution, as this may result in injury.
Today's prostate massagers range from fingers to vibrating massagers. All of these devices are designed to stimulate the prostate and are used by many partners during foreplay. Newer styles are often designed to be curvier and slightly longer for more thorough prostate massage. The increasing popularity of such devices and their hygienic and safe designs has encouraged sexual experimentation and sexual play.
When using anal sex toys, it is recommended to use lubricant as they often create a sensation of needing to defecate, which is usually a sensation caused by stimulation and takes some getting used to.
