Urethralfluor occurs during inflammation of the urethra

Secretions from the urethra, the prostate or urine have important diagnostic significance. Secretion discharge from the urethra, the so-called Urethralfluor is the cardinal symptom of inflammation of the urethra, urethritis. For the diagnosis is that, unlike the mid-stream urine, taken first, a drop of urethral secretion. Following this, the first portion of urine is collected, which would be rejected at the mid-stream urine. Because you want to say but, if the urethra is infected with disease-causing germs, here are the first portion is used. Then both - the discharge from the urethra and the urine - and examined under a microscope to search for pathogenic bacteria and white blood cells.


The 4-glass test helps in the localization of infection.
For the diagnosis of acute prostatitis, prostatitis, use the prostate secretion, which is also known as prostatic. It is produced by an (also called three-glass test) by the doctor performed prostatic massage and then using the 4-glass test. This combines the study of the first urine, midstream urine, and prostatic Exprimatharns. This study is very well suited for infection localization.


Step by step, here are taken from four samples
In the 4-glass test, proceed as follows:

    First Sample: removal of the urethral secretion (see above). The first portion is evidence of urethral inflammation
    Second Sample: The mid-stream urine is used to examine the bladder urine.
    Third Sample: The prostate gland secretion. Before the third sample is a prostate massage. The doctor massages the prostate with a finger through the anus. It escapes from the urethra a little secretion that comes directly from the prostate.
    4th Sample: The Exprimaturin. After the prostate massage the prostate secretion, if possible, with the rest remaining in the bladder as urine 4th Washed sample (Exprimaturin).
