Prostate congestion
Congestion caused by various reasons, especially passive congestion, is an important pathogenic factor for prostatitis. The onset of patients is often not caused by bacterial infection or microbial invasion, but it will form inflammatory reaction and induce prostatitis. It is common to cause congestion in daily life.
Urinary dysfunction
Some factors cause excessive contraction of the urethral sphincter, resulting in bladder outlet obstruction and residual urine formation, causing urine to flow back into the prostate, not only bringing pathogens into the prostate, but also directly stimulating the prostate, inducing sterile chemical prostatitis, causing abnormal urination and pelvic pain.
Urine stimulation
In medicine, urine stimulation is referred to as a chemical factor. Urine contains various acidic and alkaline chemicals. When a patient's local neuroendocrine imbalance causes high pressure in the posterior urethra and damage to the opening of the prostate duct, it can cause irritating chemicals such as uric acid to flow back into the prostate, leading to chronic prostatitis.
Psychological factors
Research has shown that more than half of patients with chronic prostatitis have significant psychological and personality changes. Such as anxiety, depression, hypochondria, hysteria, and even suicidal tendencies. These changes in mental and psychological factors can cause autonomic nervous system dysfunction, resulting in neuromuscular dysfunction of the posterior urethra, pain in the pelvic area, and dysuria; Or it can cause changes in the hypothalamic pituitary gonadal axis function, affecting sexual function, further exacerbating symptoms, and eliminating mental tension can lead to symptom relief or recovery.
Symptoms of prostatitis
1. Urinary tract symptoms: frequent urination, incomplete urination, dripping urine, painful urination, burning urethra, urgency, difficulty urinating, and yellow urine are common.
2. Mental symptoms: fatigue, depression, decreased memory, decreased self-confidence, etc.
3. Sexual and reproductive symptoms: When waking up in the morning or defecating, a small amount of thin, milky white, watery or viscous secretion flows out of the urethral opening, or accompanied by ejaculation, premature ejaculation, hematospermia, ejaculation disorders, and decreased libido.
