| Abstract: | The prostate gland is an accessory sex gland found in male goats and other mammals. The prostate gland is an essential reproductive organ in male goats, playing a vital role in semen production and fertility. However, like all living organisms, goats are susceptible to various diseases that can affect the prostate gland and compromise their reproductive health. Some of the diseases affecting goats include prostatitis, benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), prostate abscess, and prostate cancer. Prostate pathology could result in decreased reproduction and sperm cell health as it could impair capacitation and fertilization potential. |
