Causes of pathology

Experts say that the reasons for the formation of the disease:

• The weakening of the immune system – reduced protective barrier couriers to prevent many viral infections;
• Infectious processes viral elements, germs, bacteria via the blood or lymphatic ways into the prostate. A symptom of this phenomenon – temperature increases when the prostate;
• A sedentary lifestyle causes disruptions in blood circulation, oxygen starvation;
• Disruptions in the circulation as a result of stagnant moments in the genital area – caused due to indiscriminate sexual activity, prolonged abstinence from sexual contacts, irregular sex sexual relations.

Inflammation in the prostate may start due to the penetration of germs, but for the development of infection need pathogenic microflora, which can be created as a result of the following factors – the presence of harmful addictions, constipation, hormonal disruptions, injuries, hypothermia and so on.

The main causes of prostatitis in men include:

1. Hormonal disorders — there is a theory that increased production of testosterone.
2. Adverse effects on prostate tissue, causing growth and inflammation. No less dangerous and a hormone that weakens the industrial region on urogenital function.
3. Immune status — when the body works "at the limit", he reduced the protective functions. He is not able to resist bacteria and viruses, which penetrate into it from outside or can not cope with the relapse of chronic processes.
4. Passive sex life — the person who is irregular in an intimate relationship is suffering from a stagnation of that lead to inflammation.
5. Wrong tactics paying sexual contact — it's no secret that many couples as a contraceptive method practiced coitus interruptus. They do not represent that thus, impede the full flow of sperm. In addition, as a result of the PPA violated the mechanism of outflow of blood, which actively flows to the pelvic organs and helps maintain a full erection.
6. Sedentary men leads to stagnation.
7. Urethral reflux — occurs against a background of bacterial lesions of the urethra. In violation of the mechanism of the reverse flow of urine, it goes the seeds of the way and happens the bacterial infection of the prostate.
8. Disorders diet — if the diet is present junk food with a predominance of animal fat and lack of protein and fiber, it affects the hormonal balance and proper intestinal function.
9. Excessive exercise, especially with the use of steroid drugs.
10. Hypothermia leads to decreased immunity and development of pathogenic flora.
11. Promiscuous increases the risk of sexually transmitted diseases. Sexually transmitted infection in men often occur hidden, while hitting of the prostate tissue. According to research, 78% of cases the cause inflammation either directly or indirectly are Trichomonas, chlamydia, gardenella, gonorrhea.

The prostate has its own defense mechanism: it produces a secret, which has antibacterial properties. Ale in the presence of agresivnyh pathogenic factors can not cope with the load and inflamed. Men of active reproductive age (18-50 years old) are most common with acute prostatitis. In middle age the main causes of prostatitis become sedentary, hypothermia and irregular sex life. It was during this period of acute process, the symptoms of which I did not pay attention, did not start timely treatment, has the potential to become chronic. For the male population over the age of 50 years characterized by three pathological process of the prostate:chronic prostatitis, adenoma, adenocarcinoma. In this case, surgical treatment in combination with hormone therapy and other methods.

• narrowing, scarring of the urethra;
• pyelonephritis, other kidney conditions;
• a prostate abscess, which requires surgical intervention;
• sepsis, which threatens the life of the patient (this most likely patients with a weak immune system, diabetes, renal insufficiency).

It is important to know! Pathology may lead to cancer of the prostate (observed in 7% of men older than 50 years), which will seriously deteriorate a man's life, and even lead to death.

Because of what may appear on the disease

Prostatitis has several types of defined causes of the disease.

The main factors causing the occurrence of prostatitis, the following:

1. Infection. The bacteria get into the prostate in different ways. Young men who have sex without contraception (condoms), have a high risk of the disease due to the penetration of pathogenic microorganisms (chlamydia, Mycoplasma, etc.). In addition, the occurrence of prostatitis occurs as a consequence of some internal chronic diseases. Harmful bacteria reach the prostate with the flow of lymph or blood. Pathological microorganisms can "descend" into the prostate via the urethra. Then the disease is provoked by diseases of the urinary system (urethritis, pyelonephritis) weakened immunity.
2. Stagnant processes. They manifest in obesity, sedentary lifestyle, because the blood circulation in the pelvic organs is disturbed. To the prostate as a result not get the required amount of oxygen and nutrients.
3. Injury. Due to the mechanical damage of tissues and organs of the small pelvis (OMT) can cause blockages that provoke an inflammatory process. Frequently, the truckers due to their professional activities related to prolonged sitting position and permanent injuries to a chair that would ' have with the OMD.

The opinion of doctors. Urologists believe that prostatitis is not a life diagnosis. If the treatment did not produce quick results, the man should not give up and wonder, did he brand all the requirements. Only with joint actions and efforts of the doctor and the patient, confident in the success of therapy will help a man feel healthy, and so full.
