There are no known effects on the prostate from the consumption of garlic.
If your question is related to the contribution of garlic in increasing the chances for prostate problems (such as BPH or cancer), I would say NO.
Several studies have shown that garlic has anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties, lowering the risk for such prostatic problems.
