What are the reasons for the development of prostatitis

A large number of the strong half of humanity is sick with prostatitis. Men after 40 years of age are especially susceptible to the disease. This pathology is caused by the proliferation of prostate tissue with the further emergence of benign processes.

When prostatitis occurs, a man cannot always guess about the onset of pathology. If prostatitis occurs asymptomatically, then this suggests that there is every reason for the transition of the disease to the chronic stage, and as you know, any disease is easier to treat in its initial form than when it becomes protracted.

The easiest way is to prevent various kinds of pathologies at the very beginning of their occurrence. To do this, urologists recommend that men conduct annual scheduled examinations, since the prostate gland is a very sensitive organ that is susceptible to various negative influences.

Timely check-ups will help prevent the occurrence of diseases such as inflammation of the prostate. Timely prescribed therapeutic therapy prevents the transition of pathology to a chronic form.

What are the main causes of inflammatory processes in the prostate

To diagnose prostatitis and receive recommendations for treatment, you need to know about the main factors and causes that contributed to the occurrence of pathological processes. Correct identification of the cause of the inflammation contributes to the correct prescription of effective therapy.

The first thing to know is that an inflammatory disease can be bacterial and not bacterial. Doctors call it acute, bacterial disease and chronic bacterial disease. Most often, men seek medical help precisely with a chronic course of the disease.

What are the reasons for bacterial prostatitis

The causes of abacterial prostatitis in men lie in capillary stasis. The emerging pathology means that the inflammatory process has not yet begun, and this is a guarantee that the disease can be completely cured. Usually, patients with such a diagnosis, after carrying out medical manipulations, fully recover.

Men are encouraged to pay attention to their lifestyle and correct it. To do this, patients must honestly answer all questions of the urologist regarding the patient's nutrition, physical and sexual activity, existing or past diseases. Usually, pathological phenomena can be eliminated after adjusting the life position.

The main reasons why the prostate becomes inflamed are:

• the penetration of infection, viruses and bacteria to the tissues of the male gland, which contributes to the onset of the inflammatory process in the prostate, as bacteria modify the organ (the prostate enlarges);
• the reason for a weakened immune system in a man is that with a weakened immune system, the body's protective functions are not strong enough to fight viruses and infection, which is the reason why autoimmune prostatitis may appear;
• chemical inflammatory process - the prostate becomes inflamed due to urine flow to the tissues of the organ;
• neurogenic inflammatory processes - when a specific substance secreted from nerve endings on the prostate tissue is exposed, an inflammatory process will appear;
• The causes of non-bacterial prostatitis often lie in the occurrence of stagnant processes in the male organ. This can happen for a number of congenital or acquired reasons.

Congenital and acquired reasons

Congenital and acquired causes of prostatitis:

• abnormal structure of the male organ (prostate gland);
• insufficient production of hormones that are responsible for ejaculation and erectile function;
• impaired blood circulation in the male gland - when edema appears in the prostate, blood vessels are pinched, this phenomenon provokes the onset of blood stagnation;
• negative impact of a professional nature associated with the activities of the work;
• prostatitis will certainly appear due to damage or trauma in the perineal area - such phenomena cause stagnation in the vascular system of the prostate, which indicates the possible occurrence of chronic prostatitis.

Acquired reasons:

• Urethritis in the inflammatory process of the urinary canal. When an infection enters through the canal, urgent treatment is necessary, since the inflammatory process of an infectious origin can affect other organs of the reproductive system.
• Narrowing of the foreskin - due to increased pressure in the urethral canal, the outflow of urine is impaired.
• Deposition of salts and stones in the urinary tract, urethra, prostate gland. Irregular sex life.
• Bad habits.
• Incorrect diet.
• Work in hazardous production.

What causes bacterial prostatitis

What causes bacterial prostatitis? The reason for this pathology lies in the penetration of infections that penetrate the tissues of the prostate, causing prostatitis in men. The prostate in men is exposed to constant contact with infection. For example, urine is a body waste fluid with constituent toxins and harmful components.

The most common cause of bacterial prostatitis is a genital, fungal infection.

The occurrence of bacterial prostatitis in men infectious causes:

• Chlamydia.
• Trichomoniasis.
• Mycoplasmosis.
• Candida fungi.
• Molds.
• Escherichia coli.
• Streptococci.
• Gonococcus.
• Staphylococcus.
• Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Definition of prostatitis

To determine from what the disease may be prostatitis, doctors collect an extensive anamnesis. The urologist examines the patient, asks for symptoms.

The first thing that should alert a man is difficulty urinating during the outflow of urine. Over time, obstructed outflow of urine is marked by the release of small portions of fluid. When a patient is acutely ill, symptoms appear suddenly.

Patients note pain in the groin, perineum, sacro-lumbar region, and anal canal. Patients note negative changes in potency, pain during intercourse, defecation.

General fatigue, malaise, fever, profuse sweating are added to the pronounced symptoms.

As you can see, all the symptoms of inflammation of the prostate gland cannot be overlooked. If at least one change in the usual way of life appears, an immediate examination by a urologist is required for the occurrence of a pathological process in the male gland and other organs of the small pelvis.

What causes prostatitis disease? First of all, men who lead an inactive lifestyle are at risk. Sedentary work is the factor that causes the inflammatory process of a stagnant nature. These patients include office workers, drivers, accountants, controllers and others.

Stagnant prostatitis due to what else occurs:

• frequent constipation;
• addiction to alcoholic beverages (provokes swelling in the male gland);
• decreased protective functions;
• transfer of pathology of the urinary or reproductive system;
• untreated disease such as cystitis;
• not having regular sex life;
• promiscuous sex.

Untreated acute form of pathology, causes Chronic prostatitis, which is why a man can suffer for years (constant relapses) from the disease. Urologists recommend that men have regular sex life. This is both a natural massage of the prostate and the withdrawal of secretory fluid. Thanks to pleasant moments of intimacy, a man will always be healthy.

To have sex, you must have one partner, otherwise you can become infected with bacteria, viruses, fungi from different women with unprotected sex. As a result, an outbreak of prostatitis occurs.

Chronic prostatitis may be asymptomatic or mild. However, pathology is more dangerous than an acute disease. With exacerbations of this pathology, patients develop pain and discomfort, as in cases with an acute form.

In order to start adequate treatment of the disease, it is necessary to eliminate the cause of the pathological process.
