What exactly causes seminal vesiculitis?

Seminal vesiculitis can have a great adverse effect on men, especially the frequent and painful urination, which can make it difficult to concentrate on life and work. Some patients may feel a little confused when they are diagnosed, and can't figure out why they are sick. In fact, there are many factors that cause this disease. The editor will list the common factors in the article below. Let's take a look together.

1. Bad living habits reduce the body's resistance. Common situations include: frequent alcoholism, overwork, cold, excessive sexual activity, perineal injury, etc., which can cause congestion of the seminal vesicle or reduce the body's defense function against pathogen infection, thus facilitating the spread of pathogens that infect the urethra, reproductive system organs, intestines and other parts of the body to the seminal vesicle through the vas deferens, blood circulation or lymphatic circulation.

Second, inflammation of organs adjacent to the seminal vesicle, common ones include: prostatitis, orchitis, epididymitis, etc. The bacteria that cause these diseases will spread to the seminal vesicle, endangering the health of the seminal vesicle and causing seminal vesiculitis. The inflammation is mostly caused by retrograde infection of bacteria along the ejaculatory duct through the posterior urethra or by the bacteria of epididymitis invading the seminal vesicle along the vas deferens. The most common bacteria in the infection are E. coli, followed by Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, and Diphtheria-like bacteria.

3. Seminal vesicle fluid retention. Generally, seminal vesicle fluid will be discharged during ejaculation. However, if ejaculation fails or is not possible for a long time, seminal vesicle fluid may be retained in the seminal vesicle. Seminal vesicle fluid retained in the seminal vesicle can not only become a good nutrient for the growth and reproduction of bacteria and other pathogens, but also facilitates the migration and spread of bacteria in the urethra or vas deferens along the seminal vesicle fluid flow and infect the seminal vesicle.

Therefore, the incidence of seminal vesiculitis is relatively common, mainly because the location of the disease is relatively special and is susceptible to bacterial infection. Therefore, the editor recommends that men must pay attention to maintaining good hygiene of the genitals and the whole body, especially during sexual intercourse, and change underwear frequently, and choose to wear loose cotton types.
