Patient's question:
Male, 27 years old, was diagnosed with benign prostatic hyperplasia during a company health check-up. This disease is usually something that middle-aged and elderly people get, but I'm so young, how could I also suffer from this condition? It's a bit confusing. Why is that?Doctor's answer:
Excessive sexual activity is a major reason why a small portion of friends experience recurrent benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). This is due to overindulgence in sexual activity, which can lead to genital congestion. If sexual activity is not restrained, it can cause congestion in the genital area, and the prostate gland will also shrink along with it. If congestion persists for a long time, it can reduce the likelihood of a patient developing BPH. Additionally, if sexual activity is not clean, it can lead to sexually transmitted infections, which can increase a patient's resistance and also reduce the possibility of developing BPH. Diet-related issues have been confirmed by medical research.
