Patient's question:
I have been married to my wife for five years, and she has never been pregnant. I don't know if it's because of me that she can't get pregnant, because I often suffer from premature ejaculation during sex. Sometimes I can't control myself and I ejaculate prematurely. Can premature ejaculation affect fertility?Doctor's answer:
Hello, premature ejaculation and short sexual intercourse duration generally do not significantly affect the possibility of pregnancy if normal sexual life and normal sperm are present. However, some causes of infertility and subfertility include issues with sperm, blocked female fallopian tubes, gynecological inflammation, and endocrine disorders. It is recommended to visit a hospital for detailed examinations such as a sperm routine check, female gynecological color ultrasound, and six endocrine hormone tests to assess the situation. Avoid staying up late and drinking beer to prevent affecting sperm quality. Premature ejaculation can be cured, but the treatment period is usually long, and the condition may easily recur after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to cooperate actively with the doctor during treatment, use medication appropriately, maintain a light diet, avoid spicy foods, and not smoke or drink beer. We hope male patients can recover as soon as possible!
