Patient's question:
A man is 28 years old. He recently caught a cold, and after recovering from it, he noticed that there was a discharge from his urethral opening. He also experienced persistent lower back and back pain, which has become increasingly severe recently. His friend suggested that he might have prostatitis. He wants to know: Does chronic prostatitis affect his fertility?Doctor's answer:
Most cases of chronic prostatitis will never affect fertility. It is recommended that you have a thorough examination of your semen routine to test your current fertility. If any abnormalities are found, further tests are needed to identify the cause, and then treatment should be targeted accordingly. Additionally, for the treatment of chronic prostatitis, anti-inflammatory drugs must be used in a standardized manner, combined with symptomatic treatment drugs based on your current symptoms to complement the therapy. This is the only way to effectively alleviate the condition.
