Patient's question:
I have mild prostatitis. If I have sex again in the future, can it make a woman pregnant?Doctor's answer:
If you suffer from prostatitis, it is essential to seek treatment as early as possible, otherwise it will affect the combination of sperm and eggs. Prostatic fluid excreted by the prostate is an important component of semen, accounting for 30% of it. Prostatic fluid contains substances necessary for the movement and survival of sperm. It also contains various enzymes that cause semen to vaporize and hyaluronidase that helps sperm penetrate cervical mucus and the zona pellucida. When the prostate experiences inflammation again, the secretion of prostatic fluid decreases, which can lead to low sperm motility, poor vitality, and semen that does not liquefy.
