Dear fellow men
Hello everyone! I am a prostate gland. Although I am only the size of a chestnut, I look petite and fragile, but very important. Although sometimes I will make a little trouble and cause you some trouble, please understand that those discomfort are just warning signals when I am tortured. So, please understand me and treat me kindly?
I have my own characteristics: active heart and silent liver. I also have my own four characteristics.
I hide deep in the bottom of the pelvic cavity, which is very hidden. Although I live in a remote place, I am not alone. The upper part is the bladder, the lower part is the urethra, the front part is the pubis, and the back part is the rectum. They are all my neighbors.
I'm not big enough to pack more, but my position is very important. Several pipes such as urethra and ejaculatory tube pass through my body, none of which is smooth. It is my duty to control urination and transport semen.
With the growth of age, many organs will age and shrink, but I continue to grow. My volume is very small in childhood, which can be more than doubled in adolescence. It is relatively stable between the ages of 20 and 50, and it starts to grow again after the age of 50. My volume change seems to be closely related to the androgen secreted by the testis. I am prone to illness, inflammation, hyperplasia and cancer. These three common diseases threaten my health. Many male compatriots will suffer from prostate problems once in their lives.
I am also an accessory gland serving the testicle, which is regulated and controlled by nerves and spirit, and will also affect nerves and spirit in turn. I have two functions: endocrine and exocrine. Prostaglandins, as endocrine products, are secreted into blood and tissues and organs. Prostate fluid, as exocrine products, plays an important role in protecting sperm and promoting pregnancy. So don't underestimate me!
Don't let me get hurt. In recent years, many male compatriots have developed a lot of bad habits, and some organs have been damaged as a result. I can't escape bad luck. When I feel uncomfortable, I will release five signals to remind you to pay attention to my health.
Abnormal frequency of urination, urgency of urination, pain in urination, thin urine line, endless urination, difficulty in urination, burning urethra, dripping after urination, etc. may all be symptoms of my illness. For example, the frequency of urination is mainly manifested by the need to urinate more than once per hour, and the amount of urine per time is not much; Urgent urination means that once you have the intention to urinate, you must go to the toilet, and you will urinate your pants after a little hesitation; Difficulty in urination includes two aspects: one is waiting for urination, which takes more than 10 seconds or even minutes to urinate, and the other is waiting for several minutes or even more to urinate once.
Local pain in the perineum (between the thigh root, anus and scrotum), testicles, lower abdomen, anus, groin, and posterior urethra may also be caused by my illness.
About 30% of the patients with prostate diseases with abnormal sexual function have erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation; 15% change in sexual function.
Neurasthenia When I am exhausted, I may have endocrine abnormalities, resulting in neurological and mental symptoms, such as insomnia, dreaminess, dizziness, fatigue, night sweats, spontaneous sweating, mental depression, decreased self-confidence, memory loss, etc.
