Patient's question:
Recently, I've been experiencing severe lower abdominal pain, and the pain also occurs during urination. Sometimes, the amount of urine is quite small. After going to the hospital for a thorough examination, I found out that I have prostatic calculi. In the past few days, my wife has been working and has returned home. She wants to have sexual intercourse, but I don't know if the prostatic calculi will interfere with sexual activity.Doctor's answer:
If prostatic calculi cannot be treated in a timely manner, the quality of sexual life is very likely to be disrupted. In fact, prostatic calculi often show no adverse reactions or symptoms in the early stages. The majority are asymptomatic prostatic calculi, and clinical diagnosed cases are relatively few. The early symptoms of prostatic calculi and prostatic inflammation are easily confused, including frequent urination, urgent urination, decreased libido, premature ejaculation, and changes in sperm quality. The possibility of infertility may severely interfere with a man's sexual quality of life, making it advisable to seek treatment as soon as possible.
