Patient's question:
Male, 32 years old. He has had sexual activity, but not very frequently. Recently, while urinating, he noticed some pain. He doesn't know if he has prostatitis. If he has a habit of sexual activity, will it lead to male prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
If there is again a sensation of pain during urination, this cannot be ruled out as being related to the condition of prostatitis. However, it may also be caused by a urinary tract infection. But if you have sexual habits, it may easily lead to a recurrence of prostatitis. Therefore, you now need to first abstain from sexual activity, seek medical attention for a thorough examination of the prostate, and undergo a routine urine test to confirm if there is a urinary tract infection before treatment.
