What is the normal value of prostatic fluid?

Prostate disease is a very common male disease, mostly in men's departments, and it takes a long time to develop and is a persistent disease. Prostate disease in men will affect our physical health, so early diagnosis and early treatment of prostate disease are very important. The cause of prostate disease is closely related to the bad hygiene habits of male friends in life. So, what is the normal value of prostate fluid?

pH value:

Normal prostatic fluid is acidic with a pH of 6.2-6.5. The pH may increase in prostatitis.

Appearance:

Normal prostatic fluid appears light milky white. When there is inflammation, the secretion is thick, yellow or light red, and turbid.

Lecithin bodies:

In normal prostatic fluid, lecithin bodies are almost everywhere in the visual field, and are marked as +++ to ++++ on the examination sheet. When prostatitis occurs, the lecithin bodies decrease, only + to ++, and tend to aggregate into piles.

Red blood cells:

Normal prostatic fluid contains few or no red blood cells, that is, no more than 10 per high-power field of view. In prostatitis, there may be more than 10 to 15 per high-power field of view.

White blood cells:

Normal prostatic fluid contains no more than 10 white blood cells per high-power field of view. In the case of prostatitis, the number of white blood cells may exceed 10, and the test results will show + to +++.

sperm:

If the seminal vesicles are compressed during prostate massage, sperm may be detected in the prostate fluid.

Trichomonas and mold:

Normally, there are no trichomonas and fungi in the prostatic fluid. However, when there is trichomonas and fungi infection, they can be detected in the prostatic fluid.

Clinical significance: The prostatic fluid of patients with chronic prostatitis is slightly yellow and turbid or contains floccules when examined under a microscope. Macrophages swallow a large amount of lipids, which increases the number of leukocytes in the prostatic fluid. The diagnosis can be established if there are more than 10 leukocytes per high-power field of view. In severe cases, leukocytes can be seen in piles, and lecithin bodies decrease or disappear. However, the examination results are often related to the amount and thickness of the prostatic fluid, the presence or absence of urinary tract infection or specimen contamination. Therefore, when using prostatic fluid microscopy to diagnose chronic prostatitis, three consecutive reexaminations should be performed to make a more reliable diagnosis.

The above is a brief introduction to the normal value of prostatic fluid. I think everyone has some understanding of it. Bad living habits are likely to cause this disease. If you suffer from this disease and fail to receive timely treatment, it can seriously endanger the patient's physical and mental health. Therefore, our prevention work in life is very important. Only by doing a good job of prevention can we reduce the probability of the disease.
