Prostate disease is highly harmful, and what is the relationship between it and sexual life

The prostate is a unique organ for men, and it is also a relatively susceptible organ related to fertility and sexual life. If the prostate gland gets sick, it can affect sexual life. So how does prostate disease affect sexual life? Let's take an inventory.

What is the prostate gland

"It is an important organ in the urinary and reproductive systems of the human body, especially in men. It is located in the lower part of the bladder, around the posterior urethra, and passes through the middle of the prostate. Its size is equivalent to the shape of a chestnut.". Its main function is not only to form a part of the urethra, but also to produce prostate fluid, which forms a part of semen. It has a certain impact on spermatogenesis, the quality of sperm, the quality of seminal plasma, and the quality of his reproductive and sexual life. "If the prostate develops a disease, there will be one problem with urination, the second problem with fertility, the third problem with sexual life, and at the same time, like other organs, there will be local pain and a series of other symptoms.".

There are many prostate diseases

There are many diseases of the prostate, and one of the most important is prostatitis. It can also be divided into acute bacterial prostatitis, chronic bacterial prostatitis, and chronic non bacterial prostatitis, as well as prostate pain, prostate stones, and tumors, as well as malignant tumors and prostate cancer. The most common disease is prostatic hyperplasia. So like these prostate diseases, some people have said that a man who lives to the age of 80 has almost no need of prostate diseases.

Symptoms of prostate disease

Prostate diseases include inflammation, hyperplasia, tumors, and stones. This characteristic is determined by the role played by the prostate gland. As mentioned earlier, the prostate gland has a certain relationship with urination and sexual function. With prostate disease, it is often easy to occur that affects urination, such as frequent urination, urgency, pain in urination, difficulty in urination, and so on. In addition, some sexual problems may arise. For example, prostatitis can occur at this time, such as ejaculation pain, premature ejaculation, male infertility, and fertility issues.

The relationship between prostate disease and sexual life

Nowadays, many people have some misconceptions about the relationship between sexual desire and prostatitis. They believe that having prostate disease is caused by excessive sexual activity. People without sexual activity may benefit from prostate disease, but this is not the case. It should be said that if a person has a relatively strong sexual desire, the sexual impulse is relatively strong, and he does not often have an erection of the prostate, and there is no sexual impulse. If the sexual tension is not released, there are often erections, impulses, and congestion, but he does not ejaculate. The prostate is in a state of repeated congestion and edema, which is prone to symptoms of prostatitis for a long time. Therefore, we often encounter clinically older men who are not married, or men who are often separated from each other and have developed prostatitis even though they are already married. Why does this happen? It is because there is no sexual life for a long time, or sexual life is in a depressed state, which is a cause of prostatitis. "The strength of sexual desire is not absolutely related to prostate disease, because if the strong sexual desire is released normally and ovulated normally, prostatitis is not easy to occur.".

Chronic prostatitis causes premature ejaculation

Chronic prostatitis can cause premature ejaculation, why is this happening? "The prostate is located in the posterior urethra. During sexual activity, semen gradually concentrates around the posterior urethra, where it collects. Under certain circumstances, it cannot withstand pressure, leading to ejaculation. If there is inflammation in the posterior urethra, sensitivity increases.". This tends to lead to early ejaculation and even premature ejaculation. If this inflammation is cured, premature ejaculation can also be cured. To be sure, premature ejaculation caused by chronic prostatitis can be cured, provided that chronic prostatitis is treated. In addition, after some prostatitis is cured, some people do not improve as the prostatitis is cured. After a long time of premature ejaculation, a habit will form, which requires breaking the conditioned reflex in the cerebral cortex.
