Is prostato-cyctitist (bacterial prostate) contagious? is it safe to have sex or masturbate when i am antibiotics to treat it?

No and Yes: Usually easily treated with a course of one of the floxacin family of antibiotics. It is hard for most antibiotics to enter prostatic tissues but the floxacins do.
