Patient's question:
When staying in the same room with your girlfriend, you have taken medication to enhance sexual function. Recently, you've been feeling unwell and went to the hospital for a check-up. Is there a relationship between benign prostatic hyperplasia and taking sexual enhancement medication?Doctor's answer:
Prostate enlargement is not related to the consumption of sexual drugs. Rest assured, prostate enlargement is primarily due to untreated prostatitis. Or urethritis, cystitis, seminal colliculus inflammation, etc. This causes the prostate tissue to become congested and fibrotic, leading to enlargement. Additionally, long-term congestion of the prostate, excessive sexual activity, improper diet, and prolonged holding of urine can all contribute to this. If not treated promptly, it can affect fertility. Therefore, patients should seek timely medical treatment and pay more attention to self-care in daily life. Avoid spicy foods.
