Patient's question:
Yesterday, a good friend of mine was chatting with me and said that he had recently contracted trichomoniasis prostatitis. Since I had also suffered from prostatitis before but have now been cured, I wanted to consult a doctor. Hello, what is the difference between trichomoniasis prostatitis and prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
Trichomoniasis prostatitis is contagious, usually transmitted through sexual contact. The type of prostatitis you mentioned, also known as aseptic prostatitis, is caused by simple inflammation and is not contagious. Therefore, if your friend contracts trichomoniasis prostatitis, it is necessary to start medication treatment immediately, and sexual activity is strictly prohibited during the untreated period. In addition to receiving proper treatment for prostatitis, attention should also be paid to dietary aspects, such as eating a balanced diet and maintaining a positive mood.
