Does a prostatic cyst seriously affect fertility?

Patient's question:

My husband has been running to the bathroom frequently lately, and he also goes to bed to sleep more often at night. I made him go to the hospital for a thorough examination. The doctor said he suffers from a prostatic cyst. Will a prostatic cyst interfere with conception?

Doctor's answer:

After watching your explanation, prostatic cysts generally do not interfere with fertility. When the size of a prostatic cyst decreases, it may cause symptoms that affect the urethra, such as frequent urination, urgency, and incomplete urination. If the immune system is compromised, urinary tract infections may also occur. If not treated promptly, it may lead to infections in the male reproductive tract and accessory glands. Prostatic cysts can be treated through needle aspiration or surgical intervention. Avoid alcohol and caffeine intake, and refrain from sexual activity for a period of time if you experience cold sensations.
