What are the consequences of high urine white blood cell count in men?

Many men are often found to have high white blood cell counts in their urine during urinary examinations. Experts say that the main cause of this is prostatitis, because when a man has prostatitis, some inflammatory factors will enter the urine during the entire urinary process, and the white blood cell count in the urine will increase. So what are the consequences if a man has high white blood cell counts in his urine for a long time?

The main effects of high urine white blood cells in men

1. Impact on 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., unclean urine, frequent urination at night, etc., which make the patient irritable and affect work and life.

2. Induce seminal vesiculitis and epididymitis: Prostatitis is mostly caused by infection with pathogenic microorganisms. If not treated in time, the pathogenic bacteria can ascend along the posterior urethra, causing posterior urethritis, or descend along the vas deferens, causing epididymitis. This is why prostatitis rarely occurs alone.

3. Impact on fertility: Prostatitis is a common disease that affects men's health. It has many harmful effects. Severe cases can cause male infertility, which has a great impact on the family. The main reason is that long-term chronic inflammation changes the composition of prostatic fluid, affects the secretion function of the prostate, and then affects the liquefaction time of semen and reduces sperm motility, thus leading to male infertility.

4. Cause impotence and premature ejaculation: The prostate is one of the important sex glands. After inflammation, the first thing that appears is urinary tract irritation, such as frequent urination, urgency, and difficulty urinating, etc., followed by sexual function, such as impotence, premature ejaculation, abnormal spermatorrhea, etc. This is particularly prominent in patients with chronic prostatitis.

Through this introduction, we can see that high white blood cell count in male urine will not only affect the health of the prostate, but also have a certain degree of impact on the patient's sexual function and fertility. Therefore, when you find that you have high white blood cell count in your urine during a urinalysis, you must receive targeted treatment in a timely manner.
