Why do men get prostatitis? Male prostate cancer can easily lead to prostate disease if they do not receive proper daily care. Among them, acute prostatitis is a relatively common type. So what are the causes of this disease? Below is an introduction to the causes of acute prostatitis.
Hyperemia of the prostate
Congestion caused by various reasons, especially passive congestion, is an important pathogenic factor for prostatitis. The onset of disease in patients is often not caused by bacterial infection or microbial invasion, but it can form inflammatory reactions and induce prostatitis. Congestion is common in life.
Dysuria
Some factors cause excessive contraction of the urethral sphincter, leading to bladder outlet obstruction and residual urine formation, causing urine to flow back into the prostate, not only bringing pathogens into the prostate, but also directly stimulating the prostate, inducing sterile chemical prostatitis, causing abnormal urination and pelvic pain.
Urine irritation
In medicine, urine stimulation is referred to as a chemical factor. Urine contains a variety of acidic and alkaline chemicals. When patients have local neuroendocrine disorders that cause excessive pressure in the posterior urethra and damage to the opening of the prostate tube, stimulating chemicals such as uric acid can flow back into the prostate, causing chronic prostatitis.
Psychopsychological factors
Research has shown that more than half of patients with chronic prostatitis have significant changes in mental and psychological factors and personality characteristics. Such as anxiety, depression, hypochondriasis, hysteria, and even suicidal tendencies. Changes in these mental and psychological factors can cause autonomic nervous dysfunction, resulting in neuromuscular dysfunction of the posterior urethra, pelvic pain, and dysuria; "Or cause changes in the function of the hypothalamus pituitary gonad axis that affect sexual function, further exacerbating symptoms, and eliminating mental tension can alleviate or heal symptoms.".
Symptoms of prostatitis
1. Urinary tract symptoms: Frequent urination, incomplete urination, dripping urine, pain in urination, burning urethra, urgency in urination, difficulty urinating, and yellow urine are the most common symptoms.
2. Mental symptoms: mental fatigue, mental depression, memory loss, decreased self-confidence, etc.
3. Sexual and reproductive symptoms: When rising in the morning or defecating, a small amount of thin, milky white, watery, or viscous secretion flows out of the urethral orifice, or it is accompanied by ejaculation, premature ejaculation, blood semen, ejaculation disorders, and decreased libido.
