Mr. Niu past six months, always feel malaise, the old can not afford to raise the spirit, not in a good night sleep, insomnia, multiple dream, from time to time urination bifurcation.

Yang Huai said, prostatitis does not endanger human life, would not lead to severe dysfunction, and most mild, therefore, not terrible. Some studies have shown that about 50% of adult men in their lives suffered from prostatitis.
The prostate is a male gonads inside the largest body, through the prostate duct, ejaculatory duct, urethra and the outside world, vulnerable to bacterial infection causing inflammation; some bad habits such as alcoholism, stay up late will lead to decreased immunity, spicy food, non-regularity life, sedentary, are easy to make the prostate causing inflammation.
Symptoms may go away
Prostatitis is divided into acute bacterial prostatitis, chronic bacterial prostatitis, chronic non-bacterial prostatitis and asymptomatic prostatitis. 90% belong to the third of chronic prostatitis.
Statistics show that 60% of the symptoms of prostatitis and mental factors that are closely linked. Yang Huai that sense can be considered chronic prostatitis is a self-limiting disease. Through the establishment of a correct perception of unhealthy living adjustment of behavior and mental state, symptoms may go away.
Although most patients with mild symptoms, but the interference by some one-sided information, the easy to own “step in those shoes,” to produce more subjective symptoms. Like a cow like her husband, the overall thinking of his prostate had been “terminally ill”, we are particularly sensitive to the pelvic area, frequent urination, urgency symptoms out. In fact, many “symptoms” are not always due to prostatitis, such as the occasional urinary bifurcation, the urethra may be related to the drying.
Severe anxiety can affect sexual function
In addition, some patients worry that, after suffering from prostatitis sexual function, fertility is affected, or even cancer of the prostate, so even more nervous.
Yang Huai said that although some patients will appear libido, erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation and so on, but there is no sufficient evidence to show that prostatitis will be a direct result of the sexual dysfunction, there is no evidence that prostatitis can cause prostate cancer. Instead, in patients with severe anxiety and depression can affect sexual function, long continue, psychological anxiety, depression will have become withdrawn, and may even cause personality changes.
Avoid holding back urine and sedentary
Mild symptoms of prostatitis patients, by adjusting the habits, the symptoms can be improved. The heavier the symptoms should go to the hospital for regular treatment standard, through the rational use of drugs to reduce inflammation effectively controlled.
Prostatitis patients living habits and behavior can make some adjustments: bogey alcohol, eat spicy spicy food, avoid holding back urine, sedentary, pay attention to warm, strengthen and physical exercise. In sexual life should be appropriate, excessive frequency of intercourse or masturbation, sex life duration is too long will stimulate the prostate, but the complete cessation of sexual activity also cause prostate fluid accumulation, the negative anti-inflammatory.
Yang Huai reminded that a lot of prostatitis for the general bacterial infection caused by Neisseria gonorrhoeae, or as long as not mycoplasma, chlamydia and other pathogens, do not need to worry about pathogens transmitted through sexual intercourse partners.
