Can prostatitis cause premature ejaculation?

Patient's question:

I recently don't know why there's a dull ache in my lower abdomen and groin area. I frequently experience urinary irritation and feel some abnormal urination. Can prostatitis lead to premature ejaculation? I'm a bit upset that I might develop sexual dysfunction. Moreover, the pain is unbearable. I'd like to ask how I can alleviate it?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, prostatitis can interfere with sexual nerves, leading to an increase in sexual activity duration. I recommend you to go to a professional hospital's urology department for a follow-up visit, perform a detailed examination of prostatic fluid and color Doppler ultrasound, and confirm the treatment plan based on the inflammation. As long as the inflammation is controlled, the sexual activity duration can return to normal. You don't need to worry too much. In terms of diet, it is recommended to avoid alcohol and spicy, irritating foods. Wish you health.
