Does prostatitis affect fertility?

Patient's question:

I recently don't know what's going on, my lower body is very uncomfortable, and I'm not getting morning erections anymore. Is prostatitis related to fertility?

Doctor's answer:

The prostate is a gland of the human body, and its secretion, prostatic fluid, is a part of semen. Inflammatory lesions inevitably affect the composition of semen and interfere with the activity and function of sperm, thereby impacting male fertility. If you have chronic prostatitis, it is crucial not to become pessimistic or burden yourself with heavy thoughts that prevent you from moving forward. There are many reasons that can cause infertility, including issues from the male side, the female side, or both. You should not solely focus on the diagnosed chronic prostatitis while ignoring other potential causes. We recommend that you come to our hospital for examination and confirmation. Even if infertility is caused by prostatitis, it can currently be addressed through scientific treatment to achieve the goal of fertility.
