Current prostatitis is one of the most common diseases of male genital organs: in different age groups, this ailment is detected in 20-40% of men.In recent years, doctors have noticed deterioration in the situation, since the frequency of incidence of prostatitis has increased significantly.
Prostatitis is the general name of the group of inflammatory diseases of the prostate gland (prostate).The chronic form can occur for unnoticed years, without pronounced symptoms, but at the same time it has a negative impact on the quality of life of a man.Prostatitis is often the cause of sexological disorders and male infertility.
The disease can develop at almost any age, so it is important to hear the signs of the body and regularly visit the urologist for preventive purposes.The timely detection of the disease is a successful and fast cure guarantee.
Prostatitis symptoms:
- Pain in the genital area.
- Urine disorders (fast and/or painful, difficult to urinate, slow urine, etc.).
- Sexual function disorders (accelerated, boring orgasm ejaculation, sexual impulse disorder and, as a result, weak erection).
- Infertility in some cases.
In addition, a group of nonspecific manifestations of the disease is distinguished: fast fatigue, weakness, lack of appetite, decrease in performance.
A little about anatomy: prostate
The iron of the prostate (or prostate) is under the bottom of the bladder between the pubic and rectum joint.A prostate part of the urethra passes through the prostate fabric.In an adult man, the mass of the prostate gland is 15-28 grams, in children the size of the prostate gland is very small.
Prostate tissue consists of prostate glands, muscle and elastic fibers.The reduction of powerful muscle beams surrounding glandular slices during ejaculation leads to squeeze a secret from them.
The prostate is closely interconnected with the work of the testicles.The prostate gland produces the secret constantly, but stands out in the urethra in healthy men only during ejaculation and partly during urination.The secret of the prostate gland increases the mass of seed fluid and neutralizes its slightly acidic environment, as a result of which the sperm in it becomes mobile.The secret of the prostate in ejaculate is approximately 40% of its volume.In addition to developing a secret, in the prostate gland, metabolic assimilation and transformation of male sex hormones, active substances are carried out: prostaglandins, which is essential for the life of a man and his sexual activity.
Due to the great impact of the prostate on the functioning of the reproductive system and the entire organism of a man as a whole, a man of a man is often called.
The reasons for the development of prostatitis
Two groups of causes of disease development are distinguished: infections and stagnation.Infectious prostatitisIt can be caused by several bacteria, viruses or fungi.Pathogens are most commonly specific microorganisms: staphylococci, streptococci, E. coli, proteus, something less frequently, specific microorganisms: gonococci, tricomonas, etc.Recently, recently, the amount of chlamydia, mycoplasmic, etc. has increased etc.prostatitis.
Reasonstagnant prostatitis (congestative)There is a stagnation of the secret in the prostate gland and/or blood in the veins of this organ, which occurs more frequently in the following cases:
- interruption of sexual relations;
- It adheres artificial to ejaculation with shortened sexual relations;
- Lack of regular sexual activity and long -term abstinence;
- lower ejaculation due to stress or excess work;
- long stay in a sedentary position (for example, for drivers, office workers, etc.);
- at the bottom of a series of diseases (constipation, hemorrhoids), hypothermia;
- With alcohol abuse.
The stagnation of prostatitis stands out very quickly due to infection.It is known that in many cases prostatitis precedes or accompaniesinflammation in the urethra(urethritis).
One of the significant factors that contribute to the development of prostatitis is a systematic intake of alcoholic beverages.Alcohol causes the fatty degeneration of eggs and liver tissues, which through a complex hormone exchange system contributes to a strong fall in the level of male sex hormones.In this case, the previous requirements for the development of the inflammatory process in the prostate gland are created.The particular importance in this sense is "beer alcoholism", in which the irritating effect is more pronounced.Beer directly causes all the microflora of the genitourinary tract (from the kidneys to the urethra) to go to an aggressive state.
He arrived: Chronic prostatitis
Chronic prostatitisIt often develops as a slow inflammatory process.For a long time, sometimes calculated for years, prostatitis does not manifest (latent stage).But at one time, some kind of stressful situation for the body leads to the appearance of obvious clinical manifestations.
Patients often first appeal to the urologist with a complaint aboutpain painswhich are located in the perineum, sacred, external genitals.In general, with pain located only in the lumbosacra region, patients themselves make an incorrect diagnosis ("radical" or "osteochondrosis") and are treated unsuccessfully at home.And only an attentive medical examination and laboratory studies allow identifying the cause of the disease.
The inflammation of the prostate can lead to an increase, swelling of the tissues of this organ and the transfer of the prostate part of the urethra.This causes several urination disorders.The violation of the perfection of the urine through the urethra leads to a chronic urine delay in the bladder, which, in turn, contributes to the formation of stones, the inflammation of the bladder and the posterior inflammation of the kidneys with a decrease in their function.
Prostatitis as a cause of deteriorated sexual function and male infertility
Numerous nerve endings in the prostate gland during the sexual emotion of men transmit impulses to the genital centers located in the spinal cord, which are responsible for erection and ejaculation.In chronic prostatitis, the natural course of processes is disturbed.First, premature ejaculation develops with a normal erection.Then the feeling of voluptuousness (orgasm) during ejaculation weakens and decreases.With a decrease in the production of sex hormones, the weakening of sexual impulse develops.
The psychology of a man is such that even minor disorders in the sexual sphere cause false fear of sexual intimacy, uncertainty in their abilities and, therefore, functional disorders of the nervous system.This leads to sexual neurosis and, in turn, worsens sexual function.
Reproductive violations (infertility) means the impossibility of implementing conception.In chronic prostatitis, deep metabolic disorders are being developed in the prostate gland, which leads to insufficient (in terms of quantity and quality) to develop the secret of the prostate, which is sharplyLilac seed fluidSubstances necessary for normal life and sperm mobility.
In addition, with a long and fluid inflammation, the cross -sperm crossing for sperm is altered.And even with normal sperm formation in the testicles, they cannot penetrate seed routes and more in female genitals.
Ejaculation disordersIn patients with chronic prostatitis, they often occur according to the type of premature ejaculation (sometimes immediately after the introduction of the penis into the vagina and even during the affection of preliminary love).Another, less commonly complicated, is difficult ejaculation.This causes sexual relations to run out, do not provide pleasure and satisfactory couples.
Chronic inflammatory diseases are a potential threat to permanent sexual couples.With each sexual relationship without barrier protection, a portion of infection is thrown into the sexual path of a woman.This is especially dangerous with conception or during pregnancy, since it threatens an abnormal course of pregnancy, spontaneous abortion, artificial termination of pregnancy according to medical reasons.
Hence the conclusion: Prostatitis cannot be ignored in any case, it is necessary to identify this disease in a timely manner and the treatment begins.
Prostatitis treatment
Modern medicine has accumulated a rich experience in the treatment of chronic prostatitis.First, the therapy is selected to eliminate the inflammation approach in the prostate gland.In many cases, this can already lead to a significant improvement.There is also a huge arsenal of modern drugs that allow you to effectively correct sexual disorders and reproductive disorders.
