Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I am 27 years old this year, and my wife and I are planning to have a child. However, I have had prostatitis all along, so I don't know if it will affect my wife's ability to conceive. We are no longer young, and we really want to have a child of our own, but I don't know if prostatitis will impact it. So, I would like to ask if it is still possible to conceive with prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis is caused by local chronic inflammation. Generally, it is recommended to first undergo an ultrasound examination at a hospital for diagnosis. After diagnosis, timely medication should be administered for treatment. In most cases, symptoms will subside without affecting future fertility. It is advised to pay close attention, observe carefully, and seek timely treatment to alleviate symptoms and get adequate rest. Prostatitis tends to be recurrent, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is crucial to visit a professional and reputable hospital for diagnosis. Treatment should be considered based on the results of thorough examinations. Additionally, sexual activity should be controlled, and a positive mood should be maintained. Finally, we wish all patients a speedy recovery.
