enlarged prostate. fact -- 30 million men now suffer from an enlarged prostate. fact -- every other man now watching this show will someday face the same painful problems. until now, you had three choices -- take expensive drugs with potentially serious side effects, face painful and bloody surgery, or try and live with the pain and embarrassment. fact -- you don't have to live introducing prosvent, the all- natural solution so good it's guaranteed to give you relief in less than 30 days. >> i experienced, within the first two to three days, a significant change. >> you know, not having to worry about running to a bathroom is unbelievable. >> when i started taking the product and i wasn't getting up at night, it was great. i mean, the rest, you know, you get at night, you know, was great. i didn't have to get up. >> it's just a little pill that

men suffering from an enlarged prostate? >> barbara, that's right. every man has a prostate, and as surely as their hair is going to turn gray, that prostate is going to enlarge. and by the age of 70, 80% of men will have problems. as men age, testosterone, the male hormone, is converted to dihydrotestosterone, much more potent variety, and it stimulates the prostate cells to grow and multiply and the prostate to enlarge. >> what kind of problems does that cause? >> a weak stream, hesitancy, frequency, getting up frequently at night to urinate, ultimately pain, and sexual dysfunction. >> and virtually every man is gonna face this? >> every man has a prostate, and if a man lives long enough, they're going to experience symptoms. >> let's back up just a minute. what is the prostate and why the problem? >> the only function of the prostate is it provides fluid to transport the sperm. but just like in real estate, location is everything.

here's the prostate located just below the bladder, which is where the urine accumulates and then flows through this tube called the urethra. the prostate surrounds the urethra. and as it enlarges, it squeezes the urethra, slowing the flow of urine much like you can see in an houglass. the sand flows through just like the urine flowing through the urethra. and the prostate surrounds it, slowing the flow and ultimately stopping it. and a doctor can help, because a a digital rectal exam, and he can feel the prostate and say, "hey, your prostate's getting a little big." but unfortunately, that usually doesn't occur until the 50s, and the growth of the prostate may begin in the 30s. and unless the symptoms are now debilitating, the doctor may not offer any treatment other than to rule out a serious disease. to wait until your life revolves around the bathroom where you lose your sex life is no life at all. >> and then it's back to the doctor. >> back to the doctor for drug

the symptoms, but often the side effects are worse -- decreased libido and even impotence. plus, the prostate can continue to grow. ultimately, there's surgery. >> but at least the problems go away, right? >> yes and no. there are many types of surgeries, and they each have their own problems and side effects, and often they need to be repeated. there's the gold standard -- what we call a turp or a transurethral resection of the prostate. for this, we use an instrument known as a rec >> that looks scary. >> it is. and it's a 12-inch instrument that you introduce through the penis into the area where the prostate is, and then you scrape away the prostate -- scrape it away in order to create a new opening. it's painful. it's bloody. it requires a hospitalization, but patients submit to it because, untreated, the enlarged prostate can damage the bladder, cause renal failure, lead to

>> but there's something that can help. >> this is prosvent. it contains natural substances and minerals which have been shown in study after study involving thousands of patients to reduce the symptoms of an enlarged prostate, promoting prostate health and returning men to a normal existence in less than 30 days. >> i love driving a school bus. i love the kids. but you got kids on the bus, you can't just, "you got to go, you got to go." you can't. and i thought bus. and so when this thing came about, i figured, "this is something i want to try," and it worked. it worked within a week. you know, not having to worry about running to a bathroom is unbelievable. it's kind of changed my life to what it used to be. it's better than great, because it's made a big difference in my life. >> i'm surprised it worked, and i'm surprised in worked so quickly. because within a week and a half, i was doing fine after that. i wasn't going to the bathroom during the night. >> i mean, sometimes you have the urge to go to the bathroom, and you stand there, and nothing's coming out, and then
