Each year, the disease affects more and more men and is getting younger. So, according to the statistics of doctors, in 30% of men aged 30 to 35, an inflammatory process in the prostate gland is diagnosed. In the over 50 age group, inflammation is present in 50% of men. Among people over 65, prostatitis is diagnosed in 70%. In the absence of therapy, the disease begins to progress slowly but surely, eventually leading to the development of oncology. If you begin to fight the disease immediately, as soon as it made itself felt, using a combination of drugs and folk remedies for therapy, then you can count on a quick and complete recovery. Do not be afraid of the diagnosis of "prostatitis", as this disease is not cancer and can be successfully treated with proper treatment. At the slightest suspicion, you should consult a doctor and choose the optimal treatment with him.
What can cause prostatitis
There are many reasons for the onset of developing inflammation of the prostate gland, and most often they are combined with each other. As the main provocateurs of the disease, doctors today call:
- Sexually transmitted diseases and infectionssexually transmitted diseases - it is not uncommon for diseases to develop imperceptibly for a long time after entering the body and taking over the entire genitourinary system. In such a situation, prostatitis, as a rule, is diagnosed at the moment when the underlying disease becomes evident, which is why they seek medical attention.
- Enter the ducts of the urinary prostate gland- this happens if there is a violation of the urination process, in which the circular muscles of the urethra gradually relax.
- Circulatory disorders in the pelvic organs- are observed when a sedentary lifestyle, wearing very tight and tight pants and underpants leads to the fact that blood circulation in the pelvic organs is intermittent. As a result, the prostate gland overflows with blood, which leads to its chronic injury, after which there are disturbances in its work and the supply of nutrients. This is why an inflammatory process develops in the prostate gland.
- Interruption of the relationship,artificial prolongation of sexual intercourse or prolonged abstinence - all this leads to the fact that the secret of the prostate gland does not leave the body and its stagnation occurs, which becomes the cause of inflammation.
- Hormonal disorders in the body- in case of failure in the production of sex hormones, there is a significant increase or decrease in the activity of the cells of the gland, which causes inflammation. Most often, prostatitis manifests itself in this way in old age.
- A sharp decrease in immunity- when the natural protective barrier of the body weakens, pathogenic bacteria, which are usually present in small quantities in the urethra and do not cause damage, begin to multiply, causing an inflammatory process.
- Severe hypothermia- causes the onset of the disease, as cold leads to a drop in local immunity and reduced blood circulation in the pelvic organs.
Regardless of what caused the disease, it should be treated immediately and in accordance with all the doctor's recommendations.
