What are the dangers of prostatitis

Prostatitis is a common disease in life. It has a great impact on the patient's sexual ability, fertility and endocrine system. If you find that you have prostatitis, we recommend that you should receive treatment from a doctor in time to control the disease. For patients with prostatitis, you should maintain an optimistic attitude during the treatment process.

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.

7) Prone to infection. The human prostate contains an antibacterial substance called prostate antibacterial factor. When the prostate is inflamed, this antibacterial factor decreases, so it is easy to cause infection. Infection caused by prostatitis can lead to acute urinary retention, acute seminal vesiculitis or epididymitis, vas deferens, enlarged or tender spermatic lymph nodes, etc. In severe cases, groin pain or renal angina may occur.

8) Susceptible to tumors. In 1985, American data believed that oncogenes were the most important factor, and viruses were also possible causes. A group of retrospective studies in the United States found that there was a statistically significant relationship between the prostate and the incidence of gonorrhea, which led to the suggestion that the cause of prostate cancer was related to viral sexually transmitted diseases and chronic infections. The latest research shows that normal human prostate fluid contains an anti-cancer substance that is of great significance in inhibiting tumors. When the prostate is diseased, this anti-cancer substance decreases, making it easy to cause tumors.

I believe that after reading this article about the harm of prostatitis, you should all know that if prostatitis is not treated in time, it may cause greater harm to our body. If we have a certain understanding of the harm of prostatitis, we will know what methods to use to treat this common disease.
