Chronic prostatitis and sexual abstinence. Myth or reality?

The impact of sexual abstinence on men's health is a topic shrouded in numerous myths and speculation. For this reason, I've decided to publish several videos in which I'll attempt to debunk the most popular assumptions and myths on this topic in a well-reasoned, simple, and accessible manner.

Prostatitis is an inflammatory disease of the prostate gland. Any inflammation is caused by an infection. Some infections are exclusively sexually transmitted, so prostatitis very often affects men who have an active and regular sex life. If a man is sexually inactive, there is a protective mechanism that relieves the stress of prolonged abstinence: involuntary nocturnal emissions (wet dreams). Thus, sexual abstinence under certain conditions can increase the likelihood of prostatitis, but it does not guarantee its occurrence and is not the primary cause.
