Generally speaking, after the age of 35, men's prostate, like their lumbar and cervical vertebrae, is prone to degenerative diseases. We need to take careful care of it in various aspects such as disease prevention and lifestyle habits to prevent premature aging of the prostate and affect their physical and mental health.
35 years old is the "watershed" of prostate health
In the process of moving from youth to old age, it is difficult for men to overcome the barrier of "prostate disease". According to a survey, 35% - 50% of men suffer from prostatitis throughout their lives; Men over the age of 40 begin to develop varying degrees of prostate hyperplasia. In China, 40% of men over the age of 50 suffer from benign prostatic hyperplasia.
Generally speaking, when a normal adult male is 25 years old, the antioxidant capacity of the prostate reaches its peak, and then begins to decline. After the age of 35, due to insufficient antioxidant capacity, the male prostate begins to experience mild discomfort, mainly manifested by frequent urination, urgency, pain in urination, incomplete urination, difficulty urinating, and discomfort in the perineum, lower abdomen, penis, scrotum, lumbosacral region, and other parts. A large survey in China shows that the prevalence of prostatitis is currently highest at the age of 31 to 40 years.
In addition, signals of prostate disease include: significantly longer urination times; Poor urination continuity and a ticking condition; Difficulty in urination, significant thinning of the urinary line in the later stage, etc. Experts suggest that after experiencing symptoms of these prostate diseases, you should not worry too much. You should go to the hospital for timely and standardized treatment to avoid further prostate lesions and aging, and not allow the age of 35 to become a "watershed" in your reproductive health decline.
Regular examination to prevent premature "aging" of the prostate
According to the survey, chronic prostatitis tends to occur in young and middle-aged men aged 20 to 40. The incidence rate is high, accounting for about 1/4 of male patients in the urology department. However, the failure to protect the prostate due to bad living habits and other factors, which leads to premature "aging" can be said to be one of the pathogenic factors.
According to experts, the prostate is an important accessory gonad for men, and once a disease occurs, it will endanger the health of the entire reproductive system of men. In recent years, prostate disease, as a common and frequently occurring disease among young and middle-aged men, has become one of the main health problems for men. Therefore, regular physical examination is crucial, as early detection of potential diseases increases the probability of cure.
