What are the risks of prostatectomy?

Patient's question:

2000 prostate hyperplasia was discovered

Doctor's answer:

Hello, friend: The prostate is a reproductive gland in the human body, playing a very important role in fertility. Due to the physiological structure of the prostate, conditions like prostatitis and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) often become chronic and recurrent, causing significant distress for middle-aged and older populations.
Recommendation: Since the hyperplasia has been present since 2000, you have likely undergone numerous treatments, but the overall results have been unsatisfactory. The calcification of the prostate gland is a result of chronic prostatitis that doesn’t respond to treatment, and it also indicates the progression toward the development of prostate stones. If medication proves ineffective, surgical intervention can be a viable solution. However, many people find the loss of libido and impaired reproductive function after prostatectomy unacceptable.
Lifestyle Advice: We hope you can weigh the pros and cons and make a choice that benefits your life’s path.
