Patient's question:
I have already started experiencing the symptom of frequent urination again. Later, I thought it might be due to catching a cold, so I didn't pay much attention. Now, I feel that the scrotum is very damp and has a strong odor. Especially when I always feel the urge to urinate, it makes me very uncomfortable, and I also have pain in the perineum. After a thorough examination at the hospital, it was confirmed to be prostatitis. I feel very sad about this. Will prostatitis affect fertility?Doctor's answer:
The answer is certain, but there are many reasons for it. Here are some of the main ones. The first reason chronic prostatitis can affect fertility is that it may lead to decreased libido and painful ejaculation. It can also cause premature ejaculation and poor semen quality. Leukorrhea at the urethral orifice is a common symptom after urination or defecation in patients with prostatitis. In severe cases, it can even lead to seminal vesiculitis and hematospermia. Psychological symptoms are also inevitable, such as fatigue, dizziness, and neurasthenia. Long-term persistent prostatitis can even cause the body to develop allergic reactions, leading to symptoms like conjunctivitis and arthritis. Prostatitis is a disease that is difficult to cure. Friends with the condition should always maintain an optimistic attitude and face it with a positive mindset.
