As seen online:
“The prostate is a small gland about the size of a table tennis ball. It sits under the bladder and in front of the rectum. The prostate (not prostrate) is only present in people who are biological males. It is not essential for life, but it is important for reproduction, because it supplies fluids needed for sperm to survive. Sperm are not made in the prostate; they are made in the testes and travel to the prostate through the vas deferens. ”
