Prostatitis

How do I know if I have prostatitis or not? Interested men in the doctor's office. Perhaps they have already felt some symptoms, but do not know if it is prostatitis. How prostatitis manifests itself, methods of diagnosis and treatment are issues that should be considered in detail. The characteristic signs of chronic prostatitis can be divided into several groups.

The first group of symptoms is pain

A person with chronic prostatitis may be disturbed by pain in the perineum, pain in the scrotum, radiate to the penis, to the tip of the penis, sometimes pain is given to the coccyx or anus.

The second group of complaints is urination disorder

A patient with prostatitis will be disturbed by frequent urination during the day and at night, even if a person drinks little liquid, a feeling of incomplete emptying of the bladder. This is due to the fact that the urethra penetrates through the body of the prostate gland. And if the prostate is inflamed, it compresses the urethra, causing the corresponding symptoms.

Sexual disorders characteristic of chronic prostatitis

The first sign is premature ejaculation. The seminal tubercle, which is located in the prostate gland, is responsible for ejaculation. When the prostate is inflamed, the seminal tubercle is automatically inflamed, constantly irritated, a little excitement is enough for ejaculation to occur.

There are problems with erection and potency, since the prostate is also responsible for the blood supply to the penis. With inflammation, blood circulation in the prostate gland is disturbed, erection is disturbed. The picture of orgasm is erased, the sensations are less vivid than in a healthy person.

You may even experience pain or discomfort during or after ejaculation. This complaint is borderline between prostatitis and sexually transmitted infections. Unpleasant sensations, discomfort, itching, burning in the urethra. Sometimes patients who are firmly convinced that they have an STI, when they are diagnosed, they find out that they are sick with prostatitis.

A serious sign and even a consequence of prostatitis is a decrease in fertility in men

The prostate produces a secret that is 2/3 of the volume of seminal fluid. It is the habitat of the spermatozoa that maintains the fertilizing properties of the spermatozoa outside the male body in the woman's vagina. If the prostate gland, due to its inflammation, produces a secret in the wrong quantity or composition as it should, this will lead to a decrease in the fertility of a man.

It happens that a person does not even suspect that he has prostatitis. There is no pain, no urination disorder, everything is fine in sex. But the complaint of decreased fertility outweighs all others.
