Is it okay to have children while taking medication for prostatitis?

Patient's question:

Hello doctor, I am 29 years old, male, newly married, and planning to have a child. However, I have recently been diagnosed with prostatitis. So, I would like to ask how I can have a child while taking medication for prostatitis.

Doctor's answer:

Generally, it is not advisable to get pregnant during medication, as improper medication can also affect the normal growth and development of the child. Therefore, it is recommended to focus on physical conditioning and consult a doctor. However, it is advised to avoid overexertion and closely monitor any discomfort such as frequent urination or pain. It is recommended to follow the prescribed course of treatment and then promptly visit a hospital for a follow-up examination. If you want to return to normal, it is advisable to estimate the female ovulation period for pregnancy. Prostatitis tends to recur, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is important to immediately seek treatment at a professional and reputable hospital. Treatment should be considered based on the results of the examination.
