Prostate disease is one of the major male diseases and by far the most misinformed male disease. The incidence of prostate disease is high, and more than 50% of men have been troubled by prostate disease.
The first misconception is that you can’t get married if you have prostatitis.
The actual fact is that there is not a lot of people who are afraid of prostatitis.
The actual fact is that you can find a lot of people who are not able to get rid of the problem. This is a very good way to get the most out of your life.
It is important to note that many informal hospitals carry out a lot of urethral or local physical therapy such as microwave, infrared, etc. These treatments and instruments are still immature, the efficacy is not certain and expensive, and may lead to more serious new diseases.
Myth #2: Diagnosed with “hypertrophy” in your 20s
The actual fact is that the actual people are saying that the prostate gland is hypertrophic, and they are often encountering patients in their 20s coming to the hospital, saying that they have seen it somewhere, and the doctor diagnosed him as hypertrophic.
Misconception 3: No examination if there are no symptoms
The incidence of prostate cancer in China is much lower than that in western countries, but the incidence and mortality rate are increasing in recent years. Compared with other cancers, prostate cancer develops relatively slowly, but the early symptoms are not obvious, which makes it difficult to detect in time and impossible to perform radical surgery.
Experts suggest that since most patients have no specific manifestations, older people need to visit a specialist hospital for annual prostate health checks, including anal examinations, prostate-specific antigen (PSA) and ultrasonography.
ED patients always prefer to treat themselves
Erectile function is one of the normal physiological functions of humans, and a healthy man can maintain sexual function for life. Nearly half of all men over the age of 45 experience ED to a greater or lesser extent, and ED is a precursor symptom of many chronic diseases such as diabetes, hypertension and heart disease.
Myth 1: Untimely medical treatment
Outpatient clinics have found that there are many young people with primary ED who have been unsuccessful from their first sexual encounter. However, they are too shy to seek medical attention, which seriously affects their emotional communication with their partners, fertility, and even causes family break-ups as a result. In fact, most erectile dysfunction can be alleviated and cured.
Expert advice: self-assessment of nocturnal erections and morning erections. Usually, when in a non-sexual state, there are 3-5 nocturnal erections and morning erections each night at bedtime, for a total duration of up to two hours. If abnormalities occur, you should promptly consult a regular public general hospital urology department.
Myth 2: Fear of drug resistance
The first line of internationally accepted treatment for improving erectile function is oral medication. Many patients are resistant to taking medication, believing that long-term use will increase drug resistance and may even affect their health.
Expert advice: drugs that help erections work specifically on the penis locally, must be sexually stimulated by both men and women to work, and do not harm the systemic system. And such drugs are not like other chronic disease drugs, do not have to take every day, the drug in the body effective time only about 4-5 hours, when needed to take, and will not cause drug resistance.
Myth 3: buy drugs on their own
Many men tend to be very nervous about the occurrence of ED, they will seek solutions through various channels (newspapers, radio, Internet, friends, etc.), often through informal channels to buy their own drugs, secretly take drugs without their wives.
Expert advice: the treatment of ED drugs are prescription drugs, only to the urology department of hospitals above the county level, male and endocrinology, cardiology and other doctors prescribed to buy, but also must be under the guidance of a doctor to take correctly.
Infertility hats love to buckle
Misconceptions: Checking semen once is presumptuous
The woman and man of childbearing age live together for more than a year, have a normal sex life, do not take contraceptive measures, the woman did not have children, called infertility. About 10%-15% of couples in China cannot have children, of which male factors account for 40%-50%.
The diagnosis and treatment of male infertility has been one of the main difficulties in the clinical work of male medicine, there are many problems that can not be solved, so it also gives some informal medical institutions to take advantage of, but also led to the current reality of male infertility treatment is not standardized. Many informal medical institutions just based on the results of a semen examination to the patient’s cap of less sperm, weak sperm, which is extremely irresponsible practice.
The experts suggest that if you find infertility, you should first go to a regular hospital for the relevant examination. Male semen test results are highly variable and are influenced by a variety of factors such as abstinence time, life, and psychological condition. It is possible that the same patient may not have the same result in two consecutive semen examinations, so the standard semen examination should be repeated two to three times and the results should be confirmed only after they are consistent.
Deformity surgery should be done early
Myth: Reproductive health is an adult matter
In recent years, there has been a trend toward younger age groups for male reproductive system disorders. Because parents do not understand the normal reproductive organ development process, they blindly believe that their children are still young and that reproductive health is a matter for when they grow up.
The boys themselves do not understand, even if they find abnormalities, they are too embarrassed to tell their parents or doctors, and wait until they are adults to face real problems such as marriage and childbirth before they are diagnosed and treated, but the best time for treatment has been missed.
Experts suggest that the best time to treat male sexual organ differentiation and developmental disorders is before the age of 12-14. Parents should carefully observe the development of their children’s penis and testicles, and if abnormalities are found, go to a regular hospital for consultation and treatment in a timely manner. Among them, the operation of prepuce should be carried out at the age of 5-6; the best time for the operation of cryptorchidism is within two years old.
