Prostatitis is a common male urinary disease. Male friends must understand the symptoms of prostatitis, and the harm of prostatitis to men can not be forgiven for causing male dysfunction. The treatment of prostatitis has become a big problem. So what is the harm of prostatitis? The following andrology experts introduce how harmful prostatitis is.
How harmful is prostatitis
First of all, we should realize that when prostate inflammation occurs, the secretion of prostate decreases, which reduces the volume of semen, interferes with the survival and activity of sperm, and decreases the enzyme activity in prostate fluid, increases the viscosity of semen, and prolongs the liquefaction time. Prostate fluid contains a large number of bacteria and bacterial toxins, which can consume the nutrients of seminal plasma, thus affecting the survival of sperm.
From the above discussion, it is not difficult to see that prostatitis will have an impact on fertility. Most patients with chronic prostatitis have normal fertility. Although a few patients have infertility at the same time, it should also be recognized that there are many causes of infertility. If chronic prostatitis is overemphasized, other causes will often be ignored, thus delaying the treatment opportunity.
Chronic prostatitis can cause sexual dysfunction, which is also one of the hazards of prostatitis, such as spermatorrhea, premature ejaculation, impotence, etc. In theory, chronic prostatitis does not directly damage the erectile neurovascular function of the penis. However, because of long-term discomfort, patients often suffer from psychological stress, causing depression and anxiety. Especially patients who do not understand the nature of the disease often think that their sexual function is defective. Over time, mental factors can reduce the patient's sexual desire and cause sexual dysfunction.
