Patient's question:
Doctor, I have frequent urination and painful urination. I went to the hospital for a check-up, and the doctor said I have benign prostatic hyperplasia. What are the causes of benign prostatic hyperplasia?Doctor's answer:
Abnormal sexual life can lead to the recurrence of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Frequent sexual activity, forced interruption of intercourse, or excessive sexual activity can all cause abnormal blood flow to the prostate. However, excessive sexual restraint can also result in prolonged self-stimulation, making BPH prone to recurrence. Long-term medication may be necessary. For male patients, it is important to seek professional and regular medical treatment promptly. Treatment should be considered based on the results of thorough examinations. Additionally, proper diet and avoiding sexual activity are essential. Finally, we wish all patients a speedy recovery.
