Patient's question:
During my health check-up, I was carefully examined and found to have prostatitis. It's been about four or five months since my last pregnancy. I'd like to ask if prostatitis can lead to infertility?Doctor's answer:
Prostatitis may interfere with the vitality of sperm. Low sperm vitality may increase the risk of infertility, but it does not necessarily mean prostatitis. Therefore, it is recommended not to have psychological pressure. If you feel uncomfortable, pay attention to follow the doctor's treatment suggestions after health check-ups and take good care of your daily life. Pay attention to hygiene, eliminate unhealthy habits, and avoid interruptions or frequent sexual intercourse. Regular sexual life can help the prostate fluid be expelled regularly, playing an important role in the treatment of the disease. Try to reduce local pressure on the perineum, avoid tight clothing, and do not ride bicycles for a long time. Quit smoking and avoid spicy and stimulating foods to reduce the triggers for the disease. Drink more hot water to enhance urination and help the secretion of inflammatory substances to be expelled. Actively engage in physical exercise to enhance physical fitness, etc.
