Natural Treatment for Vas Deferens Calcification

Vas deferens calcification is a form of prostatitis which occurs when the vas deferens portion of the prostate begins to calcify and form stones. There are a number of natural treatments which can alleviate this condition and prevent recurrence.

  1. Magnesium

    • Magnesium is essential to the body's ability to process calcium. Taking a magnesium supplement daily helps the body use calcium efficiently and prevents calcium from building up in the prostate or kidneys where they can cause blockages and stones.

    Control

    • Most vas deferens calcification is directly related to poorly controlled diabetes. Controlling blood sugar levels with appropriate diet and exercise decreases the risk for calcification, assists in treatment and prevents recurrence.

    Massage

    • Aggressive massaging of the prostate effectively breaks up the calcification, creating sand, or chips which can be passed during urination or ejaculation. This can be extremely painful, however, and is often performed under anesthesia. An alternative to anesthesia for pain control would be acupuncture.
