What harm does prostate disease cause in men?

The prostate is an important organ in the male body and an important part of sperm production. However, due to various factors, various prostate diseases may occur, causing great trouble to life. Therefore, we must be aware of the harm of prostate diseases and treat them in time when the disease is discovered. So, what harm does male prostate disease cause? Let's take a closer look.

1) Pain, affecting work and life. Due to the stimulation of inflammation, a series of symptoms are produced, such as swelling and pain in the lumbar sacral area, perineum, testicles, etc., urine is not clean, frequent urination at night, etc., which makes the patient irritable and affects work and life.

2) Affecting sexual function, leading to impotence and premature ejaculation. Because the disease has not been cured for a long time, various symptoms and discomforts worsen after sexual intercourse, or directly affect the feeling and quality of sexual life, causing a kind of malignant stimulation to the patient, gradually developing a sense of disgust, leading to impotence, premature ejaculation and other phenomena.

3) Affects fertility and can lead to infertility. Long-term chronic inflammation changes the composition of prostatic fluid, affects the secretory function of the prostate, and further affects the liquefaction time of semen, reduces sperm motility, and can lead to male infertility.

4) 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 finally develop into uremia.

5) Causes endocrine disorders and mental disorders. Under normal circumstances, the prostate can secrete a variety of active substances. Due to prostate inflammation, endocrine disorders can cause neurasthenia and mental disorders; symptoms such as insomnia, fatigue, dizziness, slow thinking, and memory loss may also occur.

6) Infecting spouses and causing gynecological inflammation. Prostatitis can be transmitted to wives, especially prostatitis caused by some special bacteria, whose inflammation can be transmitted to wives through sexual intercourse. Such as fungal prostatitis, trichomonas prostatitis, gonorrhea prostatitis, non-gonococcal (chlamydia, mycoplasma) prostatitis, etc.

The above is an introduction to the harm caused by male prostate diseases. I hope it will help everyone understand. There are still many diseases related to the male prostate, especially prostatitis, which is a problem that many men have. When it is discovered, it is necessary to go to a regular hospital for treatment in time, and take routine care measures to strive for the disease to recover as soon as possible.
