Does kidney stone affect sexual function?

Patient's question:

I am a patient with kidney stones. The blood test results showed that it was two years ago. Later, I also underwent surgery at the hospital. Recently, I have been resting at home. Recently, I noticed that my sexual function has declined. Hello, can kidney stones affect sexual function?

Doctor's answer:

If kidney stones are particularly severe, causing lower back pain or leading to other kidney diseases, this may potentially affect kidney function. However, the majority of kidney stones have little impact on sexual function. If the kidney stones are not too large, drinking more water and staying more active can help them break down and metabolize. If the kidney stones are very large, surgical treatment should be performed.
