What diseases can prostate cause?

Prostate is a male reproductive organ, and its shape and volume are like chestnuts. It is located at the outlet of bladder and surrounds the initial segment of urethra. The liquid secreted by prostate is a part of semen, which has a certain effect on fertility. However, with the increase of men's age, prostate will bring some diseases, among which three common diseases are benign prostatic hyperplasia, prostate cancer and prostatitis. Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is the most common benign disease that causes dysuria in middle-aged and elderly men. Generally, it occurs after 40 years old, the incidence rate exceeds 50% at 60 years old and reaches 90% at 80 years old. Benign prostatic hyperplasia generally appears symptoms after 50 years old, and the disease develops slowly, and the symptoms can be mild or severe. Frequent urination is the most common symptom in the early stage, especially nocturia, and dysuria is the most important symptom. When the condition worsens, there may be residual urine, urinary incontinence, urinary retention, hydronephrosis, renal function damage, urinary tract infection, hematuria, calculus, inguinal hernia, proctoptosis, internal hemorrhoids and so on. The main treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia is 1. 2. medication; 3. Surgical treatment. Prostate cancer The incidence of prostate cancer has surpassed that of lung cancer in the United States, becoming the first tumor endangering men's health. In recent years, the incidence of prostate cancer in elderly men in China has shown an obvious upward trend. Prostate cancer is asymptomatic in the early stage, and lower urinary tract obstruction such as dysuria and bone metastasis may occur when the tumor invades or blocks the urethra and bladder neck in the late stage. Radical prostatectomy and radiotherapy are the most effective treatments for early prostate cancer. Radical prostatectomy should achieve three goals, in order of importance, namely, radical tumor removal, retention of urine control function and retention of sexual function. Radical prostatectomy includes open surgery, laparoscopic surgery and robotic surgery. Advanced prostate cancer needs comprehensive treatment, including endocrine therapy, chemotherapy and traditional Chinese medicine treatment. Prostatitis Prostatitis is a very common disease in adult men. Some data show that about 50% of men will be affected by prostatitis at some time in their lives. Clinically, chronic nonbacterial prostatitis is the most common, accounting for more than 90%. The symptoms of prostatitis mainly include perineum, perianal pelvic pain, frequent micturition, urgency, urgency, etc. Some patients may be accompanied by sexual dysfunction symptoms such as decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, and abnormal semen parameters. Acute bacterial prostatitis can be accompanied by systemic symptoms such as chills and fever and obvious urination symptoms. Warm reminder of the fifth issue of Yinchuan People's Liberation Army: With the aging of society, the absolute number of people suffering from prostate diseases is increasing year by year. Therefore, patients with symptoms of prostate disease should seek medical treatment in time to avoid delaying treatment.
