@the.prostate.mentor: Protect your prostate health today by knowing the 4 main causes of prostate enlargement. 1. 🦠 Bacterial infections Bacteria can enter the urinary tract and reach the prostate gland, causing inflammation. Some cases are associated with urinary tract infections (UTIs). 2. 🚽 Urinary tract infections and recurring infections Repeated urinary infections can increase the risk of bacterial prostatitis, especially when bacteria spread into the prostate. 3. ⚠️ Previous urinary tract procedures Procedures involving urinary catheters or instruments inserted through the urethra can sometimes introduce bacteria and lead to prostate infection. 4. 🔍 Chronic pelvic pain and inflammation Some men develop long-lasting prostate-area or pelvic pain without a detectable bacterial infection. The exact cause is not always known and may involve pelvic floor muscle dysfunction, nerve sensitivity and other factors. #prostatitis #menshealth #goviraltiktok #eldorettiktokers #fyp
