Can men with urinary tract infection have sex?

The key to the formation of urine is in the kidneys. After conversion, it needs to pass through the urethra to the bladder for storage, and then be discharged through the urethra. When this channel is invaded by bacteria and other microorganisms, it is what we often call urinary tract infection. So, can men have sex with urinary tract infection? Let's take a look below.

The male urethra is also the channel for ejaculation. If sexual intercourse is performed during the period of urethral infection, the following three major injuries may be caused to the patient's body, which should be paid attention to by the patient.

1. Aggravate the condition. After a man has a urinary tract infection, he may experience symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, inability to hold urine, and pain during urination. He needs to be treated well to relieve the pressure on the urogenital system. If a male patient has sex during the illness, it will increase the body's stress and make it easier for bacteria and other microorganisms to invade, which will aggravate the patient's condition and seriously affect the patient's physical and mental health.

2. Infection with other diseases. When a man has a urinary tract infection, the immune barrier of the urogenital system will be damaged to a certain extent, making the patient more susceptible to invasion by other microorganisms. Therefore, if a male patient has sex with others during the illness, the chance of contracting other diseases, such as gonorrhea and other genital infections, may increase, and attention should be paid.

3. Affect the prognosis. Having sex during the period of urinary tract infection in men also affects the patient's prognosis, which can increase the patient's recovery difficulty coefficient and even cause the disease to change and become difficult to cure, thus causing long-term adverse effects on the patient.

Based on the simple and detailed introduction of the harm of sexual intercourse during male urinary tract infection in the previous article, I believe that all readers have already known it. For patients with urinary tract infection, they should go to the urology or nephrology department of a regular hospital in time for medication treatment. At the same time, in daily life, patients should also pay attention to supplementing nutrition, avoid sexual life, drink more water, and urinate more, so as to clean the urethra, inhibit the growth of bacteria, and promote the cure of the disease.
