Symptoms and Types of Prostatitis

#1 Post by Stoyanov » 30 Apr 2018, 15:22

Symptoms of the disease which intensity depends on the type of pathology, is divided into several types. Pain syndrome is determined by inferior blood supply to the inflamed organ and, as a consequence, by formation of substances that affect the nerve endings. This is accompanied by the following:
• discomfort, episodes of pain in the perineal region, especially after a sexual intercourse, physical load, use of alcoholic drinks;
• discomfort and/or soreness in the testicles (“twisting”, “ache”);
• discomfort and/or soreness, urethrodynia caused by increased acidity of the prostatic secretion (“burning” with urination or after sexual intercourse due to the acidic secretion environment).

Syndrome of urethral disorders manifest itself as follows:
• increased (sometimes up to three times per hour), uncontrollable desire to urinate, with small portions of excreted urine;
• a feeling of incomplete evacuation;
• weak and intermittent flow, “last drop” symptom (every act of urination is accompanied by the release of a droplet of urine after its completion).

Orgasm and ejaculation issues determined by the development of inflammatory lesion of the seminal hillock (a so-called “colliculitis”) affected by prostatitis are manifested in the following:
• prolonged intercourse or, conversely, premature ejaculation;
• indistinct orgasm;
• pain during ejaculation (due to inflammation of the excretory prostatic ducts).

Reproductive function disorder is characterized by changes in the quality of sperm:
• decreased pH (acid medium reduces sperm motility and causes death of sperm cells);
• gluing (also known as agglutination) of spermatozoa;
• decrease in the number of active sperms (so-called asthenospermia) due to increased acidity of the environment, impaired production of special products responsible for spermatozoa vitality.
In a number of cases, prostatitis of bacterial nature is accompanied by chronic urethritis with scanty purulent rheum (also known as urethroprostatitis).

Forms of chronic prostatitis:
• bacterial prostatitis – which is mainly manifested by pelvic pain and painful ejaculation, urination disorder, blood in the semen, premature ejaculation (however, the symptoms may be absent at all!);
• abacterial prostatitis, or chronic pelvic pain syndrome, is characterized by pelvic pain for three months or more, and the absence of pathogenic flora detected by standard methods, it can be inflammatory (up to 65% of episodes, including pelvic pain and severe urination problems, the presence of white blood cells in urine, semen, and prostatic secretion), and non-inflammatory (up to 40% of episodes, manifested by pelvic pain with rare urinary disorders, absence of inflammatory laboratory signs, called in the past “congestion prostatitis”);
• inflammatory asymptomatic prostatitis, manifested by the absence of symptoms in the presence of signs of inflammation in the analyzes.
Patients are often concerned about whether prostatitis can cause impotence. The disease does not immediately cause impotence, although pain and discomfort can lead to hypoactive desire. Also, inflammation of the prostate often affects the seminal hillock responsible for orgasm in men, which is manifested by indistinct sensation and premature ejaculation. Chronic prostatitis has nothing to do with any other forms of impotence.

Furthermore, a number of studies has revealed no reliable case and effect relationship between chronic prostatitis and prostate cancer.
