Patient's question:
Five years ago, I felt uncomfortable and went for a check-up, where I was diagnosed with prostatitis. In these years, it has been recurring repeatedly, and it hasn't fully resolved. My wife has also been unable to get pregnant. I am currently very distressed. Could you please answer: Does prostatitis lead to infertility?Doctor's answer:
The prostate is a male organ that can affect sexual function, and in severe cases, it can lead to infertility. The dangers of prostatitis are well-known. With the gradual slowing of social survival, many men are particularly prone to developing prostatitis. Mild prostatitis in men will not cause infertility, but if men do not take their prostatitis treatment seriously, the condition can worsen. Prostatitis can significantly reduce the quality of sperm, leading to male infertility. Patients need to seek systematic and standardized examinations at reputable Grade-A hospitals as soon as possible based on their specific conditions, so that they can receive targeted treatment and recover quickly.
