Patient's question:
I started having sex when I was in third or fourth grade and gradually got used to it. Sometimes I had three or four times a day. I feel like I have kidney deficiency and my prostate is enlarged, with difficulties in urination and defecation. It seems like I have prostatitis. I don't want to go to the hospital. Can prostatitis heal on its own?Doctor's answer:
From adolescence, having a habit of excessive sexual activity is the main cause of prostatitis. If symptoms of urinary urgency, frequent urination, and difficulty urinating reappear, it is essential to seek medical attention at the urology department as soon as possible and not to delay. It is very difficult to recover from prostatitis without treatment, and delaying treatment will only worsen the symptoms, leading to adverse effects on future treatment. Sexual activity is just one factor that can lead to prostatitis, and other causes must also be taken into consideration. In addition to timely treatment, patients with prostatitis need to maintain a positive mood in daily life, as a good mood is very helpful for the complete recovery of the disease. Thank you!
