What is penile atrophy?

The penis is a very important reproductive organ in the male body, and the health of the penis also determines a man's sexual function. The penis has a key impact on the normal sexual ability of men. In addition to common penile diseases such as glansitis and balanitis, there is also the problem of penile atrophy. Penile atrophy will make male patients feel that the penis has become shorter. At this time, it is also very important for men to understand the causes of penile atrophy.

Physical properties

When men are in a state of tension, coldness or extreme fatigue for a long time, their reproductive organs will also shrink. So men should pay more attention to these aspects. In addition, the shortening of the reproductive organs is actually a physiological characteristic. As age gradually increases, the organ will shrink accordingly, which is a normal symptom.

Pathological causes

A: Hypergonadotropic hypogonadism

This is a common symptom that causes the male reproductive organ to shorten. Generally, the most obvious change after suffering from this disease is the change of this organ. Therefore, this symptom should be considered first during the examination so that the cause can be quickly identified and treatment can be facilitated.

B: Hypogonadotropic hypogonadism

This is also a common symptom that causes problems with this organ. In addition, symptoms such as partial anti-androgen syndrome and idiopathic micropenis should not be ignored because they are the root causes of these symptoms in male patients.

From the above two points, we can easily find that if the cause of male reproductive organ shrinkage is not pathological, there is no need to worry too much, because it does not have much impact on the health of the body. However, if the symptoms are caused by symptom, male patients should pay attention to it. Once the above symptoms appear, they should go to the hospital for treatment in time, because long-term neglect of the symptoms may lead to not only disharmony in the couple's life, but also abnormal physical health.
