Is male prostatitis contagious?

As we age, I believe many middle-aged friends begin to notice some signs of diseases in their bodies. For example, the emergence of diseases such as prostatitis is familiar to many male friends, and a large number of them suffer from it. Today, I will analyze with you the solution to the problem of whether prostatitis is contagious, hoping to be helpful.

First of all, we need to make clear what type of chronic prostatitis we suffer from. Clinically, the vast majority of chronic prostatitis cannot be diagnosed with pathogenic bacteria, that is, it is non-bacterial prostatitis. This type of chronic inflammation will not be transmitted to the female partner. Even if a bacterial infection is detected, if it is non-specific bacterial prostatitis, the female vagina has a strong ability to resist foreign bacterial infection, so there is no need to worry about the wife being infected.

Another situation is that a small percentage of chronic prostatitis is caused by trichomonas or fungi, or by gonococcal or mycoplasma, chlamydia infection, which is clinically called idiopathic prostatitis. These infectious factors are contagious in the early stages of the disease, so during sexual intercourse, the infected bacteria may be transmitted to the woman, causing idiopathic vaginitis.

At present, in our lives, the prevalence of prostatitis caused by these factors is increasing. Therefore, for chronic prostatitis caused by these factors, sexual intercourse should be avoided in the early stage of treatment. If the woman is suspected to have been infected or is the source of infection, the couple should take medication at the same time. For this type of prostatitis, since the cause is clear, as long as targeted drug treatment is carried out in time, the effect is very ideal. Generally, the pathogens can be killed in about 20 days of treatment. At this time, the relevant infection bacteria culture has mostly turned negative. Although the pathogens have been killed at this time, the pathological changes of the prostate caused by inflammation may still exist, so the inflammation can continue to exist.

I don't know if you have read the more scientific and detailed explanation I provided above, and the majority of male friends should have a deep and rational understanding of whether prostatitis is contagious. In fact, for common diseases of this type, as long as you pay attention to your diet and adjust your work and rest schedule, it will be significantly relieved, and don't have psychological pressure.
