Patient's question:
I now have prostatitis, often feel discomfort down there, and have very severe urinary urgency and frequency. I am now worried about it causing infertility. I am also planning to conceive a baby. I want to ask the doctor if prostatitis is a cause of infertility?Doctor's answer:
A normal person's ejaculation is 3-5 milliliters, which is approximately vaporized after being expelled from the body for about 30 minutes. Each milliliter contains more than 60 million sperm, with motile sperm accounting for over 60%. Conditions such as hematospermia, dead sperm, or incomplete vaporization are all abnormalities, leading to male infertility. Infertility conditions are prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication to maintain. Moreover, male patients should immediately seek treatment at professional and reputable hospitals, and treatment should be considered based on thorough examination results. Additionally, it is important to quit smoking and drinking, as well as pay attention to personal hygiene.
