How long do you need to abstain from sex after epididymitis has cleared up?

  After the epididymitis is healed, it is recommended to abstain from sex for 3-4 days, which will not cause secondary damage to the male epididymis and can stimulate the recovery of the function of the epididymis.  The epididymis itself is an internal male reproductive organ, adjacent to the testicles, and its main role is to assist in the production and discharge of sperm. When the epididymitis is well, abstinence for 3-4 days can ensure that the epididymis is in a resting state and avoid overexertion during this period. And after 3-4 days, a moderate amount of ejaculation can activate the physiological function of the epididymis and help improve men’s physical health.  In addition, it is recommended not to have excessive sexual intercourse in daily life, as frequent ejaculation may cause the epididymis to become more burdened afterwards, which may easily make epididymitis recur. At the same time, do not use hot water to scald the scrotum, which is not conducive to the healing of epididymitis.
