[Hong Kong Dragon. Talking about Sex and Love] If you suffer from prostatitis, you won't have sexual pleasure

A few days ago, a woman called to inquire: "My husband has prostatitis and is currently taking medication for treatment, but he has not recovered yet. He has wanted to have sex, and I am afraid of infection. I always refuse him. Looking at his painful appearance, I really don't know what to do. May I ask if prostatitis can lead sexual life?" In response to this question, our urology expert pointed out that patients with prostatitis can have sex appropriately without deliberately abstinence.

Can prostatitis lead to sexual activity?

Because there are many pathogens and inflammatory cells in the prostatic fluid when the current gland is inflamed. If the sexual life is restrained and prostatic fluid accumulates in the acinus and cannot be discharged, the pathogen can have continuous reproductive symptoms. Secondly, the result that prostatic fluid cannot be discharged for a long time will cause men to have a feeling of fullness in the lower abdomen and perineum and sexual impulse, which will lead to prostatic congestion and aggravate the symptoms of chronic prostatitis.

During the sexual life of prostatitis patients, ejaculation can not only make the smooth muscle of the prostate contract, promote the discharge of prostatic fluid into the urethra, but also play a very good role in drainage. Therefore, deliberately reducing or abstaining from sexual activity is not beneficial for patients with chronic prostatitis, and patients must maintain moderate sexual activity based on their physical health status.

Can prostatitis be transmitted to women?

There are many types of prostatitis, some of which are not infectious. Prostatitis is not an infectious disease, as the vast majority are non bacterial prostatitis, with bacterial prostatitis accounting for only about 5%. Therefore, when diagnosing prostatitis, it is necessary to categorize and clarify the main cause of the disease. For patients with bacterial prostatitis, specific prostatitis, and prostatitis caused by viruses, molds, mycoplasma, chlamydia, etc., it is necessary to pay attention to sexual hygiene and use pre pregnancy condoms during sexual intercourse to prevent the transmission of pathogens to their wives.

In short, regular sexual activity not only does not harm the prostate, but also ensures normal metabolism of the prostate, helps to eliminate harmful substances in the prostate and accelerate local blood circulation, accelerating the regression of inflammation. At the same time, appropriate sexual activity is also an important measure to avoid sexual apathy in couples. For patients with concomitant sexual dysfunction, medication can be used under the guidance of a doctor to improve sexual function.
