Can teenagers get prostatitis?

The causes of prostatitis are very complicated. If a man has excessive sex and masturbation or often holds his urine, it may cause prostatitis. In most people's minds, prostatitis only occurs in middle-aged men. It is true that middle-aged men are the high-risk group for prostatitis. However, this does not rule out the possibility that other male groups will develop prostatitis. So why do teenagers suffer from prostatitis?

Why do teenagers also get prostatitis?

1. Precocious puberty: With the development of society, the phenomenon of precocious puberty among teenagers is serious. Some boys and girls fall in love too early. Boys secrete a large amount of prostatic fluid due to sexual excitement, but it cannot be released normally, which makes the boy's pelvic cavity congested for a long time and cannot be relieved. The accumulation of prostatic fluid in the gland duct can also easily cause prostate swelling and inflammation.

2. Potential infection in other parts of the body: For example, bacteria from abscesses and other diseases can easily infect the prostate through the blood circulation when the body's resistance is reduced, thereby causing prostatitis.

3. Holding urine: Holding urine can cause prostatitis. Teenagers often hold urine for a long time because of reasons such as not urinating during class breaks, fear of the cold in winter and unwillingness to get up to urinate, or not paying attention to urination when watching movies or TV, which can lead to prostatitis.

4. Foreskin is too long: Foreskin and foreskin are very common in boys. Smegma can easily cause balanitis, urethritis, etc., and bacteria can retrogradely infect the urethra, penetrate the prostate, and cause prostatitis.

Warm reminder: The occurrence of prostatitis is also related to some bad habits in life, especially for teenagers, who often stay up late, have irregular diets, and take advantage of their youth to have uncontrolled sex life. It is reasonable for them to suffer from prostatitis. Therefore, maintaining a healthy lifestyle can effectively prevent the occurrence of prostatitis.
