Causes of prostatitis in men

Prostatitis is a common disease among men. In recent years, the incidence of prostatitis has been increasing, and it is also showing a trend of becoming younger. Prostatitis is a recurring disease. During treatment, it is necessary to find out the cause of prostatitis and provide targeted treatment. At the same time, it is necessary to develop good living habits, so that prostatitis can be cured. The following introduces the causes of prostatitis in men.

Causes of prostatitis in men

1. Immune factors: Prostate antibodies produced by congenital or acquired immune deficiencies damage prostate tissue. If no evidence of infection such as bacteria or viruses is found during the treatment process, it may be worth considering whether it is caused by autoimmune factors.

2. Bad lifestyle and personal hygiene: The lower body where the reproductive and urinary organs are located is prone to urinary tract infection and prostate disease if hygiene is poor. Some bad habits such as alcoholism, greasy food, long sitting, and not liking to drink water can easily lead to endogenous dampness and heat, which accumulate in the reproductive organs, causing congestion and causing sexual excitement.

3. Bad eating habits such as smoking, drinking, eating spicy and greasy food can also cause prostatitis. Some young people may develop prostatitis if they sit for a long time. Some patients are prone to prostatitis due to their physical constitution, decreased immunity, fatigue, fear of cold, etc.

4. Improper sexual life: One is excessive frequency and overuse, because during sexual life, the prostate gland secretes a large amount of prostatic fluid, so it will be congested, edematous, and the muscles will contract. If it is too frequent, it will be congested and edematous before it recovers, and it will be congested and edematous again, which will cause pathological changes. Inflammation will occur in a long time, whether it is masturbation or sexual life, if it is too frequent, it will be a pathogenic factor; the other is long-term abstinence, which is also not advisable, because long-term abstinence will also reflexively cause congestion of the sexual organs, of course, including the prostate gland.

5. Holding urine for a long time is one of the reasons that cause men to suffer from prostatitis. However, if men with prostatitis still hold urine for a long time, it is easy to aggravate the symptoms of prostatitis. Therefore, timely urination helps prevent the occurrence of prostatitis.

6. Prostate congestion: Congestion caused by various reasons, especially passive congestion, is an important pathogenic factor of prostatitis. The patient's illness is often not caused by bacterial infection or microbial invasion, but it will form inflammation and induce prostatitis.

7. Infection by pathogenic microorganisms: Since prostatitis has many microbial infection sources, bacteria, fungi, protozoa, viruses, etc. may become infection sources of prostatitis. Some fungi can also cause prostatitis. Therefore, changing underwear regularly and not wearing tight pants are the key points to prevent prostatitis.
