Patient's question:
I found out I have prostatitis, could it be calcification of the prostate? Can I have sexual intercourse in this condition? What are the early signs of prostate calcification?Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis patients can have sexual activity, but they need to use condoms. When prostatitis recurs, bacteria and inflammatory cells are present in the prostatic fluid. If sexual activity is not carried out, the prostatic fluid will accumulate in the acini and cannot be expelled, leading to continuous bacterial adaptation. Therefore, for patients with prostatic calcification, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the disease. If left untreated, it can affect overall health. Thus, patients should take medication promptly and pay close attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
