Patient's question:
Due to work reasons, I usually drink very little water. This year, I've been experiencing some lower abdominal pain during urination and sexual activity. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they diagnosed me with prostatitis. They advised me to seek timely treatment, as it can lead to infertility if left untreated. Is it really that serious?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the symptoms of prostatitis are primarily characterized by an increase in acidic substances in the patient's body, which leads to an increase in the acidity of semen, making it unsuitable for sperm survival and resulting in reduced sperm vitality. The symptoms of prostatitis may lead to anejaculation or retrograde ejaculation, causing sperm to fail to enter the vagina naturally, thereby leading to infertility.
