What are the side effects of prostaglandins?

Patient's question:

I would like to ask what are the side effects of prostaglandins? I have cardiovascular disease and hypertension, and my doctor used prostaglandins to treat me, but I feel that there are always adverse side effects when used excessively! It will have some adverse effects on the body.

Doctor's answer:

The prostate is indeed an important organ in males, located primarily in the bladder. Its main function is to secrete prostatic fluid, which forms the nutrient-rich component of semen and sperm. It also helps to inhibit urination and ejaculation. Prostatic fluid is a white, viscous, and slightly thin liquid with a faint fishy odor. Under sexual stimulation, a small amount may be released from the urethral opening of the glans. Unlike prostatic fluid, prostatic acid phosphatase (PAP) is a chemical synthetic product used as a vasodilator for the treatment of cardiovascular ischemic diseases. Its side effect may include the potential to cause local skin irritation.
