Patient's question:
I recently don't know what's going on, my lower body is very uncomfortable, and I'm not getting morning erections anymore. Does prostatitis affect erections?Doctor's answer:
Prostate cysts generally do not interfere with penile erection. If erectile dysfunction reoccurs, it is likely caused by psychological factors. However, patients with prostate cysts are advised to minimize sexual activity as much as possible, because sexual activity can lead to prostate congestion, which may alleviate cyst symptoms. Generally, if a prostate cyst is small and causes no symptoms, it does not require treatment. If the cyst is larger, it is recommended to consult a urologist for follow-up and surgical treatment based on specific circumstances.
