Does balanoposthitis harm reproductive system health?

Patient's question:

I got divorced from my wife 2 years ago. I have had balanitis for a long time, but due to my pride, I've never gone to the hospital for a thorough examination. However, when my wife went to the hospital for a check-up, she found no problems. Could it be that my balanitis is the issue? Is it possible that my wife hasn't been able to get pregnant because of the harm balanitis can cause to the reproductive system?

Doctor's answer:

Phimosis balanitis can easily lead to prostatitis, orchitis, epididymitis, and inflammation of the vas deferens. If not treated promptly and effectively, these infections can spread to each other, causing significant harm to perinatal health. If symptoms of phimosis balanitis are detected, it is essential to seek medical diagnosis and treatment immediately. Only by adopting scientific treatment methods can one successfully and completely overcome the pain. Additionally, in daily life, it is important to avoid overexertion and pay attention to personal hygiene.
