If the prostatic urethra gets clogged, a striction occurs. Treatment for this condition includes urethrotomy, antibiotics, surgery and stenting.
The ejaculatory duct opens into the prostatic part of the urethra, specifically where the prostatic urethra meets with the membranous urethra. This junction is located within the prostate gland.
Urethra has three regions in males, the prostatic urethra, membranous urethra, and the spongy urethra.
The prostatic or membranous urethra
prostatic portion membranous portion cavernous portion
The first segment of the urethra is the prostatic urethra, which runs through the prostate gland in males. It measures about 3-4 cm in length and serves as a passageway for both urine and semen. The prostatic urethra is surrounded by prostate tissue, which contributes to the fluid component of semen during ejaculation. In females, the urethra is much shorter and does not have a prostatic segment.
The portion of the urethra between the prostate and penis is called the membranous urethra. It is a short segment located in between the prostatic and spongy parts of the urethra. It passes through the urogenital diaphragm before continuing through the penis.
Seminal Vesicle
Prostatorrhea is the abnormal flow of prostatic fluid.
The prostatic urethra is the portion of the urethra that passes through the prostate gland in males. It connects the bladder to the penile urethra and is involved in the passage of urine and semen. This section of the urethra is surrounded by prostate tissue, which can influence urinary function and may be affected by conditions such as benign prostatic hyperplasia or prostate cancer. Its length varies but is typically around 3 centimeters in adults.
prostatism
There is no defined region of urethra: it begins a at the bladder and ends at the head of the penis. The external urethra, the area that you can see, is called the meatus.
