Don't think that menopause is the patent of women. In the process of men's transition from middle age to old age, there will also be different degrees of male menopause syndrome. Experts remind that the sense of loss after retirement, the decline in the quality of sexual life, and excessive family pressure will cause men to have menopausal syndrome, accelerate and aggravate the original potential prostate, and bring unnecessary troubles to daily work, life and interpersonal communication.
What are the symptoms of prostatitis?
1. Urination discomfort: bladder irritation may occur, such as frequent urination, urethral burning, pain and radiation to the penis head. In the morning, there may be secretions such as mucus at the urethral orifice, and the feeling of urination difficulty may also occur.
2. Local symptoms: discomfort of falling and swelling of the posterior urethra, perineum and anus, and aggravation of swelling and pain of squatting, defecation and sitting on the chair and stool for a long time.
3. Radiation pain: The pain of chronic prostatitis is not limited to the urethra and perineum, but also radiates to its vicinity. The following low back pain is most common. In addition, the penis, spermatic cord, testicular scrotum, lower abdomen, groin area (thigh root), thigh, rectum and other places can be affected. It should be pointed out that the low back pain caused by chronic prostatitis is in the lower waist, which is easily confused with the low back pain caused by orthopedics, such as myofascitis and lumbar muscle strain, but the latter is mostly near the belt, which is higher than the low back pain caused by prostatitis, and can be identified.
Often angry, be careful to damage the prostate
Men who are over middle age need to pay attention to their emotional changes. If there are emotional reactions such as sadness, fatigue, mental tension, or symptoms such as dizziness, insomnia, low back pain, and decreased sexual ability, they should seek medical treatment in time and treat symptomatically.
Because, in the male menopause, with the decrease of male hormone secretion, it is not only easy to cause the gradual loss of elasticity, roughness and even hair loss of the skin, but also affect the health of the male prostate, cause prostate hyperplasia and prostatitis and other diseases, and bring great trouble to men.
Interaction between male menopause and sexual ability
Although there is no definite age for men's menopause, it is related to the quality of sexual life and physical health. Most men can judge whether they have entered menopause by the function and quality of their sexual life. Director Gu Peide said that if the sexual ability of men decreased, the hormone level would be inhibited, and metabolism would be disordered, leading to premature menopause. If the sexual function of men is still vigorous at the age of 70-80, they will enter the male menopause very late. However, if it is due to mental factors or chronic diseases that cause men to enter menopause prematurely, sexual function and libido will be affected accordingly, leading to various prostate diseases.
Improper exercise can hurt the prostate
It is said that fitness can strengthen the body and prevent diseases. However, sometimes the improper selection of sports will hurt you. Some men signed up for the elderly cycling team to exercise, while some elderly people chose equestrian events. Director Gu Peide reminded that from the perspective of preventing or alleviating the symptoms of prostate disease, it is not recommended to choose horse riding, long-distance cycling and other sports. Too long cycling time, too high seats, bumpy roads, etc., will over-stimulate the prostate, make it swollen, congested or damaged, and induce prostate disease.
It is suggested that if you have to ride a bicycle, you should adjust the position of the car seat, the height should be moderate, the car seat should preferably be padded, and the front of the car seat should be slightly lower than the rear.
For menopausal men, in addition to jogging and walking to exercise, they can also choose swimming. Because swimming is not only a good way to improve immunity and strengthen the body, but also can promote the local blood and lymph circulation of the prostate, make the secretion of prostate fluid more vigorous, and help the regression of prostatitis.
Most patients with prostatitis will suffer from urination discomfort such as frequent urination and urgent urination. However, a few people will suffer from pain symptoms, such as falling and swelling of the perineum, pain, phalangeal joint, and abdominal pain. Some urethra will feel pain, or anal pain, or low back pain, and even radiate pain around the prostate reflexively.
