prostatitis

According to statistics, prostatitis is a disease that affects one in ten people. Pathological diagnosis is mainly between 30 and 50 years old.

Many men are embarrassed to talk to the doctor about the symptoms of prostatitis, which causes the disease to turn into a chronic form, complicates the treatment, and develops reproductive function problems. It is important to start treatment at the initial stage of the pathological process.

Regarding which drugs are most commonly used by men to treat prostatitis, they are considered to be the most effective.

What is prostatitis

Prostatitis is a disease characterized by an inflammatory process in the seminal glands. The glands perform many important functions, one of which is to produce specific ejaculatory secretions to protect and nourish sperm. The liquid contains enzymes, proteins, fats, and hormones. Otherwise, the reproductive system will not work properly.

Another important function of the prostate is to liquefy the sperm, making the sperm more mobile and easier to reach the goal.

If the inflammatory process starts in the prostate, its work will be disturbed. In this case, men will feel characteristic symptoms.

Causes and signs of prostate inflammation

The main source of the development of prostatitis is the penetration and stagnation of the infection in the seminal tissue. Bacteria and bacteria enter the prostate from:

• Genitourinary organs;
• Remote chronic infections and bloodstream infections (tooth caries, sinusitis, sinusitis, flu, pneumonia, tonsillitis, tuberculosis);
• Inflamed organs nearby (inflammation of the rectum), etc.

Factors before the development of the disease:

• Long-term abstinence;
• Wear too tight clothes;
• Alcoholism, smoking, drug use;
• Frequent interruption of sexual intercourse;
• Poor ejaculation;
• Irregular sex life;
• Lack of motivation;
• constipation
• Conditions that suppress the immune system (stress, unhealthy diet, lack of sleep);
• Single or permanent hypothermia;
• Whether there is chronic infection (bronchitis, tonsillitis, cholecystitis);
• Strong sexual arousal and no more sexual intercourse afterwards;
• Delayed urological diseases (cystitis, urethritis);
• The transfer of genital infections (gonorrhea, trichomoniasis).

Hyperplasia or prostate adenoma with a benign course can also cause the development of the disease. In addition, perineal trauma is the cause of prostatitis. These are often seen among motorcyclists, motorists, cyclists, etc.

It should be noted that the diagnosis frequency of bacterial prostatitis is 8 times that of non-infectious bacteria. The main reason for the latter is glandular stagnation. This leads to difficulty in blood circulation through small blood vessels, swelling of prostate tissue, and increased free radical oxidation of lipids. All these processes create conditions for inflammation and severe pain of the perineum and genitals.

During the exacerbation of male prostatitis, there are:

• Increased urination;
• Urine may contain blood impurities, pus; mental illness-restlessness, lack of sleep, anxiety;
• Violation of the urination process-it may be difficult and painful;
• Pain in the scrotum, rectum and penis;
• Erectile dysfunction.
