Patient's question:
I got married relatively late, and in my youth, I had an excessive habit of masturbation. After getting married, my sexual life with my wife was also quite frequent; however, recently I noticed that the symptoms of incomplete urination and frequent urination have reoccurred again. How can the prostate be problematic in someone like me? If I need to have a thorough check-up at the hospital, what preparations should I make at home in advance?Doctor's answer:
If it is necessary to carefully examine prostatic fluid or undergo a prostate ultrasound, it is best to avoid sexual activity for 3 days before the examination to prevent the quality of semen from being affected. If there is a history of prostatitis or benign prostatic hyperplasia, there is a higher likelihood of experiencing frequent urination and dysuria. In such cases, it is necessary to visit a hospital for examination. If there is inflammation, anti-inflammatory medication should be taken for treatment. By avoiding foods, the prostate can recover.
