Patient's question:
Having a good relationship with my husband, we have sexual activity 3-4 times per week. Recently, it has decreased. Today he told me he has a prostatic cyst. Does a prostatic cyst interfere with sexual activity?Doctor's answer:
Prostatic cysts, due to the cyst compressing the urethra, lead to decreased urination resistance and urinary obstruction, resulting in additional symptoms such as frequent urination and urgency. These conditions can reduce the quality of life for patients, causing irritability, depression, and changes in sexual desire or sexual function. Therefore, it is recommended to seek medical attention promptly for examination and treatment. Additionally, in daily life, it is important to maintain a light diet and avoid prolonged sitting or excessive physical activity. Reduce the intake of greasy, spicy, and irritating foods, quit smoking and alcohol, engage in appropriate exercise to strengthen the body, and practice moderate sexual activity. It is hoped that these measures will help you.
