Does staying up late and cause prostate disease?

Patient's question:

Recently, I've been experiencing frequent urination and urgency. Is this related to staying up late and using the internet? Could it lead to prostate problems?

Doctor's answer:

Long-term staying up late, using the internet, smoking, mental excitement, holding back urine, and other factors can all lead to the onset of prostate diseases. Prostate diseases often have a significant impact on the quality of life of young people, and in severe cases, they may lead to infertility. Therefore, it is advisable for men to stay away from internet addiction and maintain a clean and healthy lifestyle. Proper hygiene habits can also help prevent prostate diseases. For example, try to wear loose clothing, avoid wearing jeans or tight pants every day, especially when it's hot. When you feel the urge to urinate, don't hold it in, and avoid sitting for long periods or riding bicycles for extended times. Additionally, if you accidentally develop a prostate disease, it's important to seek medical attention early for examination and treatment to prevent the disease from causing harm such as difficulty urinating, sexual dysfunction, or infertility.
