Patient's question:
These days, my sexual performance hasn't been as good as before. I haven't had morning erections, and I can't tolerate it for more than a few days. Now, I'm dealing with prostatitis, but I've taken some medication from the pharmacy to relieve it. How is prostatitis generally caused?Doctor's answer:
Prostate diseases themselves do not have serious consequences, but they are often accompanied by the mental burden of recurring sexual dysfunctions such as erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation, which is usually lower than the disease itself. If it is erectile dysfunction, the recurring issues include weak erections, failure to ejaculate, or retrograde ejaculation, preventing semen from being expelled into the reproductive tract of a direct relative. These conditions inevitably prevent the meeting of sperm and egg cells, leading to infertility. Therefore, to diagnose and face the troubles of prostatitis early, we should actively adopt treatment measures and not avoid seeking medical attention. If prostatitis does not improve with treatment, it is important to switch to a new treatment plan in a timely manner.
