What are the harms of prostatitis to the human body

Prostatitis is a relatively serious disease in men. Male friends must pay attention to this disease after it occurs. After contracting the disease, not only will there be symptoms of frequent urination, urgency and incomplete urination, but it will also affect the male sexual function. In severe cases, impotence and premature ejaculation will occur. It is a particularly serious disease. We must go to the hospital for examination and treatment in time. Let's learn about the harm of prostate to the human body.

Prostatitis mainly has the following hazards

1. Sexual dysfunction: Prostate disease can cause damage to the sexual arousal nerves, resulting in symptoms such as impotence and premature ejaculation, until complete loss of function.

2. Affects fertility and may lead to infertility: Long-term chronic inflammation causes changes in the composition of prostatic fluid, affecting the secretory function of the prostate, which in turn affects the liquefaction time of semen and reduces sperm motility, which can lead to male infertility.

3. Leading to chronic nephritis and even developing into uremia: If prostatitis is not treated in time, it can lead to prostate hyperplasia, which will compress the bladder outlet, making it impossible for urine to be completely emptied, resulting in residual urine. Residual urine is a good culture medium for bacterial reproduction. In addition, the defense mechanism of the bladder mucosa is damaged, so it is very easy to cause urinary tract infections such as pyelonephritis. If the treatment is not thorough at this time, pyelonephritis, hydronephrosis, etc. will develop into nephritis, and then develop into uremia.

4. Endocrine disorders: Under normal circumstances, the prostate can secrete a variety of active substances. Prostate inflammation and endocrine disorders can cause neurasthenia and even mental abnormalities.

5. Induce cancer: Prostate disease can reduce the antibacterial ability of prostate fluid and increase the chance of bacterial infection. Long-term inflammation or hyperplasia can easily induce prostate cancer.

6. Infecting spouse and causing gynecological inflammation: Prostatitis can be transmitted to the wife, especially prostatitis caused by some special bacteria, whose inflammation can be transmitted to the wife through sexual intercourse, such as fungal prostatitis, trichomonal prostatitis, sexual prostatitis, bacterial (chlamydia, mycoplasma) prostatitis, etc.

The above is an introduction to the harm of the prostate to the human body.
