Patient's question:
Treating Prostate, What if My Girlfriend Gets Pregnant During the Treatment? I discovered I had prostatitis half a month ago and have been undergoing treatment ever since. I haven't told my girlfriend about this, but yesterday she told me she's pregnant. I want to know what impact this situation might have on the pregnancy.Doctor's answer:
During the pre-pregnancy period, whether for men or women, it is generally not recommended to take any medications for the sake of healthy reproduction. If medication is necessary, it may have certain effects on the fetus. However, in your case, if you became pregnant while taking medication, you should check what medication you are using and how much it may affect the fetus. Additionally, it is important to regularly undergo prenatal check-ups and screening for congenital abnormalities to monitor the fetus's condition. Prostatitis can be relieved, but the treatment period is usually long, and the condition tends to recur after treatment. Therefore, it is crucial to actively cooperate with your doctor's medication plan during treatment. During this period, it is also recommended to maintain a healthy lifestyle and diet. We hope that the male patient can recover as soon as possible!
