Patient's question:
I got married last year, and recently I've been feeling weak in my sexual performance. Also, when I go to the bathroom, I've noticed that my urine is cloudy, and there's a bit of a stinging sensation at the urethral opening. The check-up suggested it might be prostatitis. I'm really worried because I haven't had children yet. Could you please tell me how to prevent benign prostatic hyperplasia?Doctor's answer:
Life stress may increase the likelihood of prostate enlargement. Clinical diagnosis shows that when life stress decreases, prostate symptoms will be relieved. Therefore, it is important to maintain a relaxed state and drink more water. Highly concentrated urine can stimulate the prostate, and long-term adverse stimulation is harmful to the prostate. Drinking more water can not only dissolve blood but also effectively dilute the concentration of urine. To prevent prostate hyperplasia, attention should be paid from a young and middle-aged age, with the key being moderate sexual activity—neither indulgence nor frigidity. Frequent sexual activity can keep the prostate in a long-term state of congestion, leading to prostate enlargement.
