My numbers up to 9: Told it was because I don't use it enough?!

My numbers are up to 9 now and my doctor told me it's because I don't use it enough is he kidding? I told my wife and she's pissed!!! We are 75.
Should I look for a new doctor?

@misspeanut5722, prostate cancer is not related to lack of usage. See this from Mayo Clinic:
- Frequent sex: Does it protect against prostate cancer? https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/prostate-cancer/expert-answers/prostate-cancer/faq-20057800

You and your wife deserve better care and information from a medical professional. Have you been diagnosed with prostate cancer? Has further diagnostic testing been ordered?
