According to clinical manifestations, prostatitis can be divided into acute and chronic. The symptoms of these two types of prostatitis are different, but the impact on male health is very serious. It will not only affect the male genitourinary system, but also affect the male sexual function. What is the relationship between these two types of prostatitis and sexual life?
During acute prostatitis, due to high fever and other systemic symptoms, the perineal pain, discomfort and swelling, poor urination, function inhibition, low libido or temporary impotence. This is a normal performance and a natural response to self-protection.
In chronic prostatitis, the sexual function of most patients is not affected. However, this disease is often accompanied by neurasthenia. Therefore, many patients are very anxious mentally and worry that this disease will affect sexual function, which will really lead to sexual dysfunction. However, there are indeed chronic prostatitis patients who suffer from functional decline, manifested as impotence, premature ejaculation, ejaculation pain, frequent ejaculation, and blood sperm.
Can prostatitis patients have sex?
1. Sexual life is prohibited in acute prostatitis, and effective antibacterial drugs must be used until all symptoms disappear and the whole body recovers. After inheritance, it takes a month to slowly resume sexual life.
2. For patients with chronic prostatitis, at the stage of symptom onset, doctors will gradually use drugs to treat them, and appropriately stop sexual life during treatment. If it is not in the stage of symptom onset, it is generally encouraged to have normal sex, and it is recommended to control the frequency of sexual intercourse, for example, once a week, and drain the prostate fluid regularly, which is also beneficial to eliminate prostatitis. Of course, if condoms can be used, it is also beneficial to avoid semen entering the female reproductive tract directly.
3. After the treatment of acute prostatitis, or chronic prostatitis, avoid frequent sexual activities. Repeated sexual activities can easily lead to excessive and continuous hyperemia of the prostate, which is not conducive to the complete cure of the disease.
4.
