Can masturbation twice a week cause prostatitis?

Patient's question:

Can having sex twice a week cause prostatitis? Can having sex twice a week cause prostatitis?

Doctor's answer:

If there is chronic sexual activity, it is not recommended to have sexual intercourse, and it is also best to avoid situations where you hold back beyond the point of ejaculation and only stroke without releasing. If there is no sexual activity, it is appropriate to have sexual intercourse occasionally, such as one to two times a week. Proper sexual activity is acceptable, but it should not be too frequent, and other lifestyle habits must also be paid attention to. Maintain a healthy lifestyle, exercise regularly, avoid prolonged sitting, abstain from alcohol, and do not have frequent sexual intercourse or sexual activity.
