Is bacterial prostatitis an contagious disease?
Bacterial prostatitis, as one type of prostatitis, has its own characters such as its treatment is easy and the treating course is short. But many people say bacterial prostatitis is a contagious disease. But is it true or not?
In order to answer this question, I think we should figure out what is bacterial prostatitis. This type of prostatitis is a sudden infection marked by inflammation of the prostate. This is the least common form of prostatitis but the systems are usually severe. Patients with this condition have an acute urinary tract infection with increased urinary frequency and urgency, need to urinate a lot at night, and have pain in the pelvis and genital area. They often have fever, chills, nausea, vomiting, and burning when urinating.
Since bacterial prostatitis is an inflammation caused by bacterial infection, thus, it isn't a contagious disease. However, bacterial prostatitis should be valued and requires prompt treatment. Although this type of prostatitis won't transmit to other men via food, cloths, men with this disease also have to pay much attention to, for bacteria in prostate gland also can spread to women. Thus, men with disease should use condom when having sex.
However, if the prostatitis is complication of chlamydia or other STDs, although prostatitis won't spread, chlamydia infection can be transmitted easily with sex. So, this type of prostatitis men should avoid sexual contact until chlamydia is cleared.
Many men may hold the view that they don't have to receive timely treatment for bacterial prostatitis isn't a congestions disease. But the truth is, this type of prostatitis should be treated timely. As is known, prostatitis is a stubborn disease, but this type of prostatitis can be cured by antibiotic with weeks. Thus, this type of prostatitis is acute type and easy to cure. If you miss the best treatment time and let it turns into chronic type, it may exist for months and years.
