Patient's question:
I am a college student. Besides classes, I usually like to play computer games in the dormitory. I spend a lot of time sitting, and I also lack exercise. Recently, I've noticed that I can't urinate cleanly when I go to the toilet, and there's also white discharge leaking. After doing some research, I found it might be prostatitis. I'm still so young. Could you please tell me: what are the common misconceptions about treating prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
1. Prostatitis can lead to many sexual dysfunctions, including decreased libido, impotence, premature ejaculation, frequent nocturnal emissions, hematospermia, and painful ejaculation, which greatly interfere with normal male sexual life. In severe cases, it can disrupt marital relationships and affect family happiness.2. Prostatitis can cause symptoms such as frequent urination, urgent urination, painful urination, and a sense of difficulty urinating, which interfere with normal training and exercise for men.
3. Prostatitis can increase the secretion of prostatic fluid, leading to an increase in semen volume, higher viscosity, and a shorter evaporation time after ejaculation. This can affect the survival and vitality of sperm, potentially causing infertility.
4. Prostatitis can also lead to many mental abnormalities.
