After masturbation, frequent urination, urgency, and lower abdominal discomfort - is it prostatitis?

Patient's question:

After the last sexual intercourse, I experienced frequent urination and urgency, discomfort in the lower abdomen, and a few days of weak erection. After a few days, the discomfort in the lower abdomen subsided, and I was able to get an erection but couldn't resist having sex again. I thought it would be serious, but found that it gradually improved. Now I feel no more frequent urination, but I have a strong urge to urinate even with a little urine. Doctor, will it be good if I abstain from sex?

Doctor's answer:

In sexual activity, it will definitely lead to excessive congestion of the prostate and urethra, which will cause this discomfort again. It will also interfere with your urination function, so it is recommended that you pay attention to rest, exercise, and strengthen your immunity. Eat more vegetables and fruits. Prostate disease is prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is necessary to seek medical treatment immediately at a professional and regular hospital. Treatment should be considered based on the results of the examination. Also, pay attention to quitting smoking and drinking, and maintain good personal hygiene.
