Patient's question:
These days, I've been drinking a lot of water, and every time I drink, I feel the need to use the restroom within a few minutes. It's like I'm constantly running to the bathroom all day long. The doctor recommended that I take heat-clearing and detoxifying medicine to treat this condition. I'd like to understand if it's okay to have sexual intercourse after taking heat-clearing and detoxifying medicine for frequent urination?Doctor's answer:
Your symptoms are more likely caused by a urinary tract infection. During treatment, sexual activity should be avoided, as it can easily worsen the infection. It is recommended that you visit the urology department of a hospital for a routine urine test to confirm the diagnosis. You can focus on taking oral antipyretic and detoxifying medications, such as levofloxacin for treatment. Pay attention to maintaining good hygiene, changing underwear frequently, and avoiding spicy and irritating foods. Avoid engaging in unsafe sexual practices. The daily treatment for male urological conditions primarily involves medication. Patients can take oral medications, supplemented with vitamins, while also maintaining a regular schedule and avoiding alcohol. We hope that male urological patients can recover quickly! Thank you!
