Patient's question:
An abnormal check of prostatic fluid has been conducted, with 3+ white blood cells and 2+ pus cells. Could this be caused by excessive masturbation, frequent beer consumption, and prolonged sitting while working? Would 3+ white blood cells and 2+ pus cells be due to these reasons? Is it that sterile prostatitis cannot show white blood cells?Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis without infection is also abnormal in the routine examination of prostatic fluid, where white blood cells are present but not visible. However, based on your indication of pus cells, the possibility of bacterial prostatitis is higher. Prostatic fluid bacterial culture can be performed to identify the specific type of infection, allowing for timely and targeted treatment. Excessive masturbation, alcohol consumption, and prolonged sitting also have a direct impact on the male prostate. Therefore, it is advisable to engage in appropriate physical activity, moderate alcohol consumption, and avoid prolonged sitting. For stable prostatitis patients, daily treatment primarily involves oral medications. Patients can take some oral medications along with vitamins and maintain a regular schedule, avoiding alcohol. We hope that prostatitis patients can recover quickly! Thank you!
