Highly suspective that causative bacteria of UTI is gram negative because of the presence of

to prostate cancer
False

To cause shrinkage of the prostate gland
Where are the hyper plastic nodules of BPH located?
Periurethral zone
Why are men who have BPH prone to develop UTIs?
Because of the stagnation of urine in the bladder that promotes bacterial growth.
True/False: PSA helps liquefy semen post-ejaculation
