“The relationship between masturbation and prostate

　　“Doctor, I have masturbated before, and now I do it occasionally. Is it okay? prostatitis influential? ”……This is a question often encountered by prostatitis patients in men’s clinics.

　　In fact, we need to look at it dialectically as to whether suffering from prostatitis is related to masturbation.

　　On the one hand, when a male Does not happen for a long time ejaculation During sexual intercourse, the seminal vesicles remain in a state of full, high tension； On the other hand, a man with normal sexual development will inevitably have frequent sexual impulses, and the reproductive system will also undergo corresponding changes with each sexual impulse. Every time a man is sexually excited, the prostate and seminal vesicles are highly congested and cannot gradually return to normal until after ejaculation. The same is true for patients with prostatitis. Therefore, the complete absence of ejaculation is not conducive to the elimination of prostatitis symptoms.

　　Research by modern medicine and sexual psychologists believes that normal masturbation has a certain positive significance, and in a sense it is like living a married life. Therefore, for unmarried men with prostatitis, as well as married men who cannot live a normal married life due to short-term separation, business trips, divorce, widowhood and other reasons, appropriate masturbation is beneficial. Here we regard moderate masturbation as a moderately regular couple’s sex life.

　　In the same way, frequent masturbation, like frequent sexual intercourse between couples, will cause long-term congestion of the prostate. The normal secretion and excretion functions of the prostate will be seriously affected, and may become the cause of prostatitis.

　　In addition, masturbators are emotionally excited and nervous, and stop abruptly at the slightest abnormal change in the surrounding environment. The effect of ejaculation cannot be achieved, and repeated congestion of the prostate and seminal vesicles, and venous blood stasis will inevitably induce prostatitis and seminal vesiculitis that are difficult to cure.

　　However, we must realize that even those who have a long-term frequent masturbation habit may not necessarily eventually lead to the occurrence of chronic prostatitis. There are obvious individual differences in the definition of excessive masturbation and individual disease resistance. Moreover, most unmarried men do not masturbate as frequently as they fear. Therefore, as long as the frequency of masturbation is controlled to a certain extent, there is no need to worry about masturbation inducing prostatitis. Moreover, moderate masturbation can also help clear prostate fluid and relieve prostate stasis, which has certain positive significance in protecting or restoring prostate function.
