Prostatitis can be defined as the inflammation of the prostate gland, which is a part of the male reproductive system. The inflammation may be because of an infection or number of other causes. The prostate gland is a walnut-sized gland found in men, located below the bladder and in front of the rectum. The prostate gland surrounds the urethra (the tube through which urine and semen exit the body). The main function of this gland is to produce seminal fluid to facilitate sperm flow through the urethra.
