Can masturbation cause prostatitis?

Patient's question:

My husband's younger brother has prostatitis. My husband secretly told me that it's because his brother has frequent sexual intercourse, which is why he's like this. I don't think there's much basis for that. So I want to ask the expert doctors, is it really possible for prostatitis to be caused by excessive sexual intercourse?

Doctor's answer:

Males have a higher possibility of developing prostatitis due to excessive sexual activity. Theoretically, the first aspect is to abstain from sexual activity. The second aspect is to decide on antibiotic treatment, as prostatitis is primarily considered to be caused by bacterial infection. The third aspect is to decide on physical light wave therapy to enhance local blood circulation and promote recovery. It is best to avoid fatigue, staying up late, and mental stress. Rectal suppositories can also be used in conjunction with medication.
