Bulbous-urethral gland

The bulbourethralis gland (g. bulbourethralis) is a paired gland that is located on the lateral surface of the urethra in men. It plays an important role in secreting secretions that protect the urethra from infections and maintain the normal functioning of the urinary system.

The bulbo-urethral gland has the shape of an onion and consists of two lobes, which are connected to each other by an isthmus. Each lobe consists of several glands that secrete secretions into the urethra. This secretion contains antibacterial substances that protect the urethra from infections.

The function of the bulburethral gland is associated with the secretion of secretion, which maintains the healthy microflora of the urethra and protects it from infections. If the secretion is not released enough, this can lead to the development of urinary tract infections, as well as other diseases of the genitourinary system.

In order to maintain the normal function of the bulbo-urethral gland, it is necessary to monitor your health and lifestyle. It is important to maintain genital hygiene, avoid hypothermia, as well as eat right and lead an active lifestyle.

If you have any symptoms related to the bulbo-urethral gland (for example, pain when urinating, discharge from the urethra), you should consult a doctor for advice and diagnosis.
