Can the prostate cause erectile dysfunction?

Patient's question:

The illness: Prostatitis
Medical history and symptoms (onset time, main symptoms, follow-up hospital, etc.): 37 years old. It has been over a year now. I have undergone relevant tests, and they said it is prostatitis, which results in insufficient blood flow. Symptoms: There is morning erections, and occasionally it is possible to perform; occasionally it becomes soft during the process, leading to interruption; occasionally it becomes erect but the hardness is not enough; occasionally after drinking aphrodisiac wine, it can complete the sexual process.
Past treatment and effectiveness: I have seen a traditional Chinese medicine doctor, who listened to my above description and said it was prostatitis, and prescribed medication. It had no effect, and it might also be that the medication takes a long time to work, so I didn’t notice the effect. I went to a large private hospital for a thorough examination, underwent one session of phototherapy and abdominal irrigation, and spent three or four thousand yuan. The problem is that it still needs many more sessions to work. I feel it’s very expensive! I still want conservative treatment!
What kind of help is desired: This is the first

Doctor's answer:

Your performance has erectile dysfunction, and prostatitis can lead to this condition. If you have prostatitis, you can carefully examine the prostatic fluid. Moreover, the treatment process for prostatitis is relatively long, so you need to have confidence. It is recommended to seek treatment from a formal urology department.
In addition, during the treatment for prostatitis, besides symptomatic treatment, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also crucial. The patient must maintain a light diet and always keep a cheerful and optimistic mindset to avoid unnecessary impacts on the recovery of the prostate.
