Patient's question:
I've been married to my wife for almost three years, and we haven't been able to get pregnant. I already have prostatitis, and I don't know if it's because of the prostatitis that my sperm doesn't liquefy, so we haven't been able to get pregnant. What is the reason for the sperm not liquefying due to prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
If a man has prostatitis, it can lead to infertility, so you must first treat the prostatitis. If you have prostatitis, it can cause issues such as sperm non-liquefaction, abnormal sperm, low sperm count, or dead sperm, all of which can result in infertility. In this case, you should first undergo a thorough examination to determine which type of prostatitis you have—whether it is non-bacterial or bacterial prostatitis—and identify the specific infection causing it. Then, you should take medication accordingly.Prostatitis patients can, while understanding the principle of treating the symptoms, use home remedies as supplementary treatment in daily life. In daily dietary habits, it is important to maintain a proper diet and avoid foods.
