Gat, Y.; Gornish, M.; Joshua, S.
- Abstract
The article reflects that erect posture of the human beings may be the cause of male infertility, benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and prostate cancer (PCa). It informs that the erect posture in humans requires one-way valves to make waste products move from the testes upwards against the gravity. It informs that the basis of pathophysiological mechanism for the evolution of BPH and PCa, can be based on how testosterone reaches the prostate.
