Patient's question:
Work requires long periods of sitting in front of a computer. Sometimes, when urinating, there is a phenomenon where the stream starts to split and then returns to normal. I'm very concerned about potential prostate issues, so last Tuesday I went to the hospital for a thorough examination of the prostate. I had an ultrasound and a prostate fluid test. Here is the test report. After researching, it seems that everything is normal.Doctor's answer:
What are the causes of prostatitis?1. Prostatic congestion: Prostatic congestion is common in the following situations:
① Abnormal sexual activity: Excessive sexual frequency, forced interruption of intercourse, or excessive masturbation can all lead to abnormal prostatic congestion. However, excessive sexual restraint can also cause prolonged self-stimulation, resulting in weak congestion.
② Direct compression of the perineum: Activities such as cycling, horseback riding, or prolonged sitting can cause prostatic congestion, especially cycling.
③ Alcohol consumption: Alcohol can cause congestion in the genital organs and induce sexual arousal.
