Does the prostate cause erectile dysfunction?

Patient's question:

The illness diagnosed: Prostatitis
Medical history description (onset time, main symptoms, follow-up hospital, etc.): 37 years old. It has been over a year. Currently, related tests have been conducted, and it is said to be prostatitis, which leads to insufficient erection. Symptoms: There is morning erections, occasionally able to perform; occasionally soft during the process, leading to interruption; occasionally erect but hardness is insufficient; occasionally after drinking aphrodisiac wine, can complete the sexual process. Past treatment history and effectiveness: Seen a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, who listened to my above description and said it was prostatitis, prescribed medication, but it had no effect. It might also be that the medication takes a long time to take effect, and I didn't notice the effect before going to a large hospital for a thorough examination. Once had phototherapy and abdominal irrigation, etc., spending three or four thousand. The issue is that it still needs to be done several more times. Felt it was very expensive! Still want conservative treatment! What kind of assistance is desired: This is prostatitis

Doctor's answer:

Hello, I am glad to explain this issue to you. Prostatitis is the most common disease among adult males. Some people who have suffered from prostatitis are aware that conventional clinical diagnosis and treatment are often ineffective. Over time, the condition becomes persistent and difficult to cure, with complications continuously increasing, such as impotence, premature ejaculation, and male infertility. Moreover, prostatitis is the root cause of many prostatic diseases. Chronic prostatitis and refractory prostatitis can lead to prostatic hyperplasia, prostatic cancer transformation, prostatic stones, and cysts, serving as factors or triggers for sepsis.
