Does acute pelvic inflammatory disease in women cause prostatitis in men?

Patient's question:

My newly acquired girlfriend has acute pelvic inflammatory disease. After having sex again without taking any precautions, she developed prostatitis and experienced premature ejaculation again. Is it possible that she infected me? Can it be cured on its own? Recently, she has also experienced symptoms of scrotal itching. What should we do?

Doctor's answer:

Based on your current situation description, it appears that even if you have prostatitis, it is not directly related to your girlfriend's pelvic inflammatory disease. If you are experiencing symptoms of prostatitis, it is recommended that you visit a hospital to undergo a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the prostate for examination. If necessary, you can take oral medication for treatment. In fact, having a disease is not something to be feared. Patients should believe in their ability to overcome the illness. As long as timely treatment is provided upon early detection, the chances of alleviating the condition and recovering are very high.
