Does chronic prostatitis have anything to do with masturbation?

Patient's question:

Male, 51 years old, always feels urinary irritation, feels like there's still urine after urination, and has a weak stream of white discharge. Sometimes, when defecating, there are viscous liquid secretions. A few months ago, he visited a hospital, but the doctor did not recommend a thorough examination, saying it was a typical case of chronic prostatitis. Is chronic prostatitis related to masturbation?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, according to your description of the situation: Long-term sexual activity can affect physical and mental health, leading to conditions such as premature ejaculation and prostatitis. Long-term sexual activity is one of the causes of prostatitis. It is recommended that you stop sexual activity as soon as possible, avoid drinking beer, not work overtime, avoid sitting for long periods, and avoid spicy foods. Go to a formal specialized hospital for a thorough examination, including a routine examination of prostatic fluid and a prostate ultrasound. Treatment should be targeted based on the specific condition.
