Experts said that whether prostatitis affects sexual function can be explained from the following aspects:
First, from a physiological point of view, male erection is closely related to the anatomical structure, nerves, blood vessels and endocrine of the penis. The inflammation of prostate does not affect the above factors, so prostatitis will not directly damage male sexual function.
Second, some patients with chronic prostatitis have erectile dysfunction symptoms caused by mental factors. For example, chronic prostatitis patients have symptoms such as urgency to urinate, frequent urination and testicular drop pain, which will affect their "sexual" interest; During sexual excitement, the prostate is congested, which may cause local pain. During orgasm or ejaculation, the pain may also be aggravated; Prostatitis may also lead to increased sensitivity and premature ejaculation. These factors will make patients have certain psychological pressure. In addition, some people lack knowledge of human nature and fear that the image of "tough guy" will be damaged, which further aggravates the worry and anxiety. Over time, it will lead to decreased libido, decreased sexual function, and even erectile dysfunction.
Third, even if you suffer from prostatitis, you need not have too much psychological burden. On the one hand, we should go to the male specialist department or urology department of the regular large hospital for diagnosis and treatment; On the other hand, we should also actively understand the relevant medical knowledge and remove unnecessary ideological concerns; In life, we should avoid overwork, ride a bike for a short time, eat less spicy food and drink less alcohol. In addition, we should reasonably arrange sex life. It is appropriate to have sex once a week or once every two weeks.
