What can cause prostatitis?
There are many reasons to start developing inflammation of the prostate gland and very often they are combined with each other. As the main provocateurs of the disease, today's doctors 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 take over the entire genitourinary system. In such a situation, prostatitis, as a rule, is diagnosed at the moment when the underlying disease becomes apparent, and that is why they seek medical attention.
- Entering the ducts of the prostate gland from urine.- 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.- They are observed when a sedentary lifestyle, wearing very tight and tight pants and briefs 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 supply of nutrients. This is why an inflammatory process develops in the prostate gland.
- Interruption of intercourse,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 gland cells, which causes inflammation. Most often, prostatitis occurs in this way in old age.
- A sharp decrease in immunity.- when the body's natural protective barrier is weakened, pathogenic bacteria, which are usually present in small amounts in the urethra and do not cause damage, begin to multiply, causing an inflammatory process.
- Severe hypothermia- Causes the onset of the disease, since the cold leads to a decrease in local immunity and impaired blood circulation in the pelvic organs.
Regardless of the cause of the disease, it should be treated immediately and in accordance with all the recommendations of the doctor.
