Does orchitis lead to male infertility?

Patient's question:

Does orchitis cause male infertility? Hello expert, I am particularly worried about this because I have orchitis, and I haven't even married yet! Nor do I have children! I want to know if orchitis can lead to male infertility. Please help me analyze this for me, thank you!

Doctor's answer:

Does orchitis lead to male infertility? This is a question that patients are particularly concerned about. If a man suffers from orchitis, he should still seek early treatment, as orchitis is one of the common urological diseases among young and middle-aged men. The epididymis is also a place where sperm is stored, so its abnormalities often reflect a man's fertility. Therefore, do not neglect treatment, as it may lead to more serious consequences. The common causes of male orchitis include bacteria such as Proteus, Staphylococcus, and Chlamydia. Orchitis can occur on one side or both sides, and the latter has a higher probability of causing male infertility. If it is convenient for you, you are welcome to come to Ningbo Ou &bsp; Ya Urology Hospital for examination and treatment. Wishing patients a speedy recovery!
