Patient's question:
Doctor, I was diagnosed with prostatitis last month and have been experiencing symptoms like painful urination, frequent urination, and a feeling of incomplete urination. I have been taking medication for treatment, but it hasn't been very effective. Recently, I've been dating a girlfriend. Every time we have sex, I don't like wearing a condom. Hello, does prostatitis spread through infection? Will it cause any bad interference to her?Doctor's answer:
Dear consultant, during the recurrence of prostatitis, sexual activity is not allowed, as it can easily alleviate the condition. Avoid sitting for long periods. Spicy foods should be consumed in moderation, and alcohol consumption is prohibited. Prostatitis is never contagious, but sexual activity should only be considered after the disease has fully healed. This condition tends to recur frequently, and over time, it may lead to benign prostatic hyperplasia.
