What gynecological diseases can men suffer from?

Gynecological diseases are the most likely problems to affect women's reproductive health. Due to their special physiological structure, both married and unmarried women may be affected by gynecological diseases, so they need to pay special attention to prevention. However, many people do not know that men can also suffer from some gynecological diseases. Let's talk about these gynecological problems that men are prone to.

Trichomoniasis can be transmitted between husband and wife

Data show that if a woman has vaginal trichomoniasis, the probability of a man being infected by her during sexual contact is 30%-40%. If a man has vaginal trichomoniasis, the probability of a woman being infected by him during sexual contact is as high as 85%. Although the incidence rate of men is difficult to calculate, based on the increasing incidence rate of women and the infectiousness of the disease, it can be judged that there should be quite a few men suffering from vaginal trichomoniasis.

Most men who have vaginal trichomoniasis do not have very obvious clinical symptoms. In addition, due to limited diagnostic conditions, the disease is often not taken seriously by male patients. Missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis of male diseases are also one of the important reasons why women cannot be cured after being ill.

Trichomoniasis causes male sexual dysfunction

Trichomonas often parasitizes in the male urethra, foreskin, prostate or epididymis. They are almost inactive in winter, but they begin to become active once the weather warms up.

Since trichomonads are highly resistant to the external environment, they can still live for a period of time in the natural environment even if they are expelled from the body. They can also live for one or two hours in a bathtub, a bathtub, a bath towel, a foot basin, a foot cloth, or a toilet seat. Therefore, trichomonads living outside the body can be contagious, so you need to be vigilant.

Men infected with trichomoniasis often have a strange itching and burning sensation in the urethra after urination. If accompanied by other secondary infections, the secretions in the urethra will not only increase, but also become purulent. If the infection spreads to the posterior urethra, it will cause symptoms such as urinary urgency, frequent urination, and urinary pain, and even complicated by prostatitis. If the infection spreads to the epididymis of the seminal vesicle, it will cause male sexual dysfunction, impotence, premature ejaculation, and infertility. If you have similar symptoms, you need to see a doctor in time.

In fact, through the above content, we can see that the reason why men also suffer from gynecological diseases is often because of infection during sexual intercourse. For example, if women have some gynecological diseases and they are not thoroughly treated, then during sexual intercourse, men will be infected.
