Is Chronic Prostatitis Contagious? Do Not Fall Into Misunderstandings of Chronic Prostatitis!

Chronic prostatitis is very harmful to men because it is unlikely to cause male impotence and premature ejaculation, and it also affects the relationship between husband and wife. At the same time, many men are also worried, will prostatitis be transmitted to women through sex?
 
Is chronic prostatitis contagious?
 
Some prostatitis can indeed be transmitted through sexual intercourse, causing female gynecological inflammation, but not all. Prostatitis transmitted through sexual life is generally caused by special bacteria such as mycoplasma and chlamydia. Most prostatitis is chronic and sterile and will not be infectious, so there is no need to worry too much.
 
Prostatitis is not contagious, but it is influential. For prostatitis patients, if unprotected sex occurs directly, it may cause the bacteria in the prostate to spread into the female vagina, which may also cause acute female diseases.
 
Clinically, most chronic prostatitis is nonbacterial prostatitis, bacterial prostatitis only accounts for about 5%, and most of them are common bacteria or conditional pathogens. For nonbacterial prostatitis, no pathogenic bacteria can be detected. This type of chronic inflammation will not be transmitted to the woman. Even if a bacterial infection is detected, the female vagina has a strong resistance to foreign bacteria. So there is no need to worry about the wife being infected.
 
However, patients should note that a small proportion of chronic prostatitis clinically is caused by trichomoniasis or mold or caused by Neisseria gonorrhoeae, mycoplasma, or chlamydia infection, which is clinically called specific prostatitis. For these infectious factors, there is a certain degree of contagion in the early stage of the disease, so it is possible to transmit contagious bacteria to the woman during sex, causing specific vaginal inflammation.
 
The diagnosis of specific prostatitis can be made through clinical laboratory tests, bacteriological examinations, or massage to remove the prostate fluid, inoculate it on the culture medium, and then put it into a unique incubator to provide certain growth conditions for bacteria and microorganisms. Within a period, observe the bacteria growth, and identify the bacteria type through the colony analysis.
 
The current reality is that the prevalence of prostatitis caused by these factors is also increasing. Therefore, for chronic prostatitis caused by these factors, avoid sexual life in the early stage of treatment. At the same time, take medicine as soon as possible. Herbal medicine is prevalent among conservative therapies, such as Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pill. The pill has the effects of sterilization and anti-inflammation, which can treat chronic prostatitis effectively.
 
If it is suspected that the woman has been infected or the woman is the source of infection, the couple should take medication simultaneously. If patients do not know what pathogenic bacteria is causing, it is better to use condoms to be safer.
 
Other misunderstandings of chronic prostatitis
 
1. Harm
 
Chronic prostatitis is different from ordinary urinary inflammation. It is very harmful to men. Prostatitis is likely to lead to male impotence, premature ejaculation, and even complete loss of sexual function. So once patients have chronic prostatitis, patients must take it seriously. Receive timely medications such as Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pill to cure prostatitis.
 
2. Age
 
Many people think that chronic prostatitis will only appear in men over 40 years old. Such knowledge is minimal. Because the prostate is a very fragile part, it is prone to bacterial invasion. Therefore, even young men who have not had sex may get prostatitis when they have a cold, drink excessively, and sit long. Therefore, prostatitis is a disease that can occur in men of any age.
 
The above is an introduction to the relevant knowledge of prostatitis. In addition to medical treatment of chronic prostatitis, patients with chronic prostatitis should also start from their lifestyle habits, get up early and go to bed, actively exercise, eat more fruits and vegetables, and eat fewer meat vegetables. They are all helpful for the treatment of prostatitis.
