A patient reported a problem to us: After treatment, the patient found that his sexual organ had enlarged. This patient has mixed feelings and is very concerned that organ enlargement is caused by hormones. During the treatment, there are not many such cases, and perhaps other patients did not pay attention, but this patient feels quite obvious.
In fact, the symptoms of prostatitis in every patient will be different, but there is one symptom that patients rarely pay attention to, which is atrophy of the sexual organs. The reason for not attracting attention is also very simple, because atrophy is not obvious and occurs slowly over time, so it is not easy to attract male attention.
The male sexual organs are the most obvious manifestation of male sexuality, which is normally maintained by male hormones. Many people know that testosterone is the male hormone in men, but testosterone is not a hormone that directly affects the whole body of men. Testosterone needs to undergo the transformation of the prostate to form dihydrotestosterone in order to truly play the role of male hormones.
When male hormones are insufficient, many men experience decreased sexual function, while others experience difficulty maintaining their sexual characteristics. The deficiency of male hormones is not a lack of testosterone secretion, but a lack of transformation. Testosterone is not only secreted by the testicles. Many organs in the male body can secrete testosterone, but the organ that secretes the most testosterone is the testicle, which is why it is named testosterone. However, the conversion of testosterone can only be completed by the prostate gland. If the converter fails, men face the dilemma of insufficient testosterone.
"After the prostate becomes rigid and sclerotic, there is an obstacle to the conversion of testosterone. The converted male hormone can no longer cope with the daily functions of men. Therefore, these converted hormones will be first used to maintain the existence of life, while the human body does not have enough male hormones to maintain other functions, leading to other functional degradation or shrinkage.". This is the reason for the occurrence of atrophy of the patient's sexual organs, but because the atrophy takes a long time and the process is not obvious, the patient did not find it. In fact, this situation should be experienced by many patients, but because it takes a long time for each patient to experience this situation, and it is not obvious, it does not attract male attention.
After treatment, the patient's prostate gland returned to normal and hormone conversion became normal, so the atrophic male sexual organs would slowly recover. "This patient has been ill for a long time, and his symptoms of sexual organ atrophy are more pronounced than other patients. Therefore, after treatment, his sexual organ recovery is also more pronounced.".
