Patient's question:
Earlier, my wife and I had a good sex life, and there were no issues. But recently, during sexual activity, I often felt unsatisfied, as if I couldn't get erect. The doctor said I had prostatitis and had not received any treatment.Doctor's answer:
Chronic prostatitis does not directly damage the neurovascular function of penile erection, but due to the long-term discomfort experienced by patients with prostatitis, psychological stress often arises, leading to depression and anxiety. Particularly for those who are unfamiliar with the nature of the disease, they may often believe that their sexual function is impaired. Over time, these psychological factors can reduce sexual desire and result in sexual dysfunction.
