Prostatitis develops after forty, and sometimes even thirty years, when a man is most active at work and in the family, and a decrease in potency can significantly undermine his self-confidence not only on the love front, but in all spheres of life. By itself, prostatitis is not contagious, but one of its causes - sexually transmitted infections - can spread to the sexual partners of the patient.
The main causes of
There are several factors contributing to the development of prostatitis and the resulting decrease in potency:
- Congestive phenomena in the prostate gland. This is one of the main causes of prostatitis. Irregular or promiscuous sex life promotes stagnation of secret, and a sedentary lifestyle, lack of physical activity cause stagnation of blood. The result in both processes is one - edema of the prostate, increased pressure in it, and a violation of its functions( secretion and regulation of ejaculation).
- Uncomfortable temperature regime of the external genitalia. Overheating and hypothermia have a negative effect on men's health, as well as poor underwear and uncomfortable trousers affect the potency. All this reduces the viability of spermatozoa.
- Sexually Transmitted Infections. This is another danger of an unsettled sex life. Accession of infection against the background of stagnant phenomena in the prostate leads to inflammation, sometimes with severe consequences.
Prevention measures
Prevention of prostatitis in men should begin in childhood with the formation of boys hygienic skills, the ability to choose the right underwear and dress in the weather. These are the main points that will in the future be less prone to harmful effects on the prostate.
In young men and adult men, the prevention of prostatitis is a regular sex life, preferably with the same partner, physical exercise, healthy nutrition. It is important to regularly test for sexually transmitted infections and treat them on time, especially if a man often has unprotected sexual intercourse. It should not be protected by interrupted sexual intercourse - this leads to stagnation of the secretion of the prostate gland, besides it is by far not the most reliable method of contraception.
There are special exercises for the prevention of prostatitis, they are fairly simple and most of them can be performed without getting up from the stool. The essence of these exercises is to strain and relax different groups of muscles of the perineum, thereby eliminating stagnation of blood in the prostate gland and other organs of the small pelvis. Also useful are walking, running, squats, sports games( football, volleyball, basketball), in the winter - skiing and skating.
Drugs used to increase potency, such as all known Viagra, can also be considered as the prevention of prostatitis in men, but only with strict dosage. Excess doses, as well as the use of Viagra without a subsequent sexual intercourse, on the contrary, leads to stagnation of the prostate secret and increases the risk of prostatitis. The drugs used in our country to prevent prostatitis and increase potency have the status of dietary supplements, that is, they are not considered medicines and are not subject to certification. These include domestic funds such as Men's Supporter and Prost Plus, American drugs - Co Palmetto and Pro Formula, and many others.
To prevent acute prostatitis chronic, it is important to cure sexually transmitted infections in a timely manner and completely, to avoid unprotected sexual acts with casual partners, and to treat acute prostatitis on time.
Treatment of
If prostatitis is diagnosed, it is necessary to tackle its treatment as soon as possible, because in time untreated acute prostatitis has a tendency to chronic. To do this, use drugs, among them the most commonly used - prostagol, metronidazole, omniks, prostatilen, indigaplus, they are all available in tablets. In addition, rectal suppositories( vitaprost, tiotriazolin) are used to remove inflammation in acute prostatitis or exacerbation of chronic inflammation, reduce prostatic edema due to stagnant phenomena, anesthetize surrounding tissues and facilitate the fastest delivery of the substance acting to the prostate through the rectum wall. You can take them to the doctor's prescription even at home.
Just for the treatment and prevention of prostatitis apply transrectal massage of the prostate. The simplest method is a finger method, when the index or middle finger is inserted into the rectum with a glove lubricated with a special water-based lubricant, the lower part of the prostate is determined by touch, and several intense pressure is applied to it. The upper parts of the gland during massage are not affected. In connection with the inconvenience of the finger method and the disgust associated with it, there are simulators for prostate massage.
Do not lose their importance and exercise for the prevention of prostatitis, they speed up the process of treatment, and they are also the prevention of chronic prostatitis, which can occur with not completely cured acute prostatitis.
Treatment of prostatitis at home involves a healthy diet - fiber-rich vegetables, lean meat and fish, a large amount of liquid, alcohol restriction, especially beer. It is desirable to have moderate physical activity and regular sex life. People's remedies are applied: resorption of balls from pumpkin seeds and honey, elderberry juice, decoctions of leaves and bark of hazel, shells of chestnuts. And yet the described recommendations - more prevention of prostatitis in men than his treatment. Folk methods allow longer to maintain health and well-being.
All methods of prophylaxis and treatment of prostatitis are effective in complex, the use of one single agent will not give an instantaneous effect, so it is important to apply them together and best of all - as prescribed by the doctor.
