Patient's question:
After the two-child policy was opened, many colleagues and friends have already begun actively responding to the national policy. Having two children is something I'm quite envious of, but my husband currently suffers from prostatitis—can he still conceive a child with this condition? He's had this disease for over two years now and has been receiving treatment and taking medication.Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis does not affect pregnancy if it does not impair sperm quality and development. However, men without prostatitis generally have higher sperm quality. Therefore, once diagnosed with prostatitis, it is important to actively cooperate with treatment. When necessary, prostatic fluid culture and drug sensitivity tests should be conducted, and treatment should be carried out using sensitive medications. Additionally, sexual activity should be controlled, and spicy foods should be avoided. Prostatitis can be relieved, but the treatment process is usually slow, and the condition tends to recur after treatment.
