The fluid secreted from the prostate mixes with semen and comes out during ejaculation. The fluid helps the sperm move through the semen.
The fluid from the prostate also comes out during a prostate massage or prostate milking.
In both cases the fluid comes out through the urethra in the penis.
Prostate is an endocrine gland (that means its secretion is secreted inside your body). Prostate produces semen which nourish and carry sperm from testicles via penis during ejaculation.
The fluid is derived from the prostate gland. The testicles inject sperm into the prostatic fluid and the cowper's gland shoots "pre-semen" into the urethra before ejaculation. It is extremely slippery and is a lubricant for the semen to flow freely. A rapid climax before excitement can be painful because the cowper's has not yet lubed up the tube.
The prostate gland secretion helps neutralize seminal fluid because it is alkaline in nature. This alkaline fluid, which makes up a significant portion of semen, helps neutralize the acidic environment of the urethra and vaginal tract, providing a more hospitable environment for sperm survival and motility. Additionally, the alkaline nature of prostate secretion may also help protect sperm from the acidic environment of the female reproductive tract.
The prostate gland encircles the neck of the bladder in teh male.
Prostate gland
The prostate's main function is the secretion of a white sticky fluid that constitutes a high percentage of semen. The prostate also contains some smooth muscles, that assist in the actual ejaculation motion during orgasm.
Semen is made in the prostate. No gland-no semen.
Semen lives in a chemically "base" environment. Exposure to an acid environment would kill it. Urine is an acid. Fluid from Cowper's gland neutralizes any uric acid in the urethra. Actually the seminal fluid is acidic and the secretion from the prostste gland is alkaline so it neutralizes the fluid.
Yes, seminal fluid is an exocrine secretion produced by the male reproductive system. It is a combination of fluids from the seminal vesicles, prostate gland, and bulbourethral glands that help nourish and transport sperm.

No, testosterone is not secreted by the prostate gland, it is secreted by the testes.
The secretions from the prostate gland ACTIVATE SPERM and NEUTRALIZE URINE.
