Is prostatitis harmful to fertility?

Patient's question:

I am 36 years old, but I have been married for over a year. We have been living together for more than six months, but we still don't have any children. I would like to ask, I once suffered from prostatitis, does it affect fertility? Now I also have kidney stones, does it affect it as well? Thank you

Doctor's answer:

Hello, chronic prostatitis can easily lead to male infertility, so we hope you take this seriously. It is recommended to seek treatment at a regular urology hospital as soon as possible. At the same time, we welcome you to come to Ningbo Ou Ya Urology Hospital for treatment. If bacteria or other pathogenic microorganisms and their toxins enter the semen, they will consume the nutritional components of the seminal fluid, alter the pH of the semen, affect the activity of relevant enzymes, increase the viscosity of the semen, and interfere with the motility of sperm. All of these are adverse factors that affect fertility.
