Some patients with prostatitis do not attach importance to the treatment of the disease, believing that prostatitis is not a serious disease and will not have any impact on health. In fact, this is not the case. Prostatitis is very harmful and should be treated promptly. Below, we will specifically introduce the consequences of not treating prostatitis in a timely manner, hoping to be helpful to you.
According to an andrology expert, consequences of delayed treatment of prostatitis:
First of all, prostatitis can affect daily work and life. Due to the stimulation of prostatitis, it can bring a series of uncomfortable symptoms, such as swelling and pain in areas such as the perineum, unclean urine, frequent nocturnal urination, etc., which can make patients irritable and seriously affect their daily work and life.
Secondly, it may affect male sexual function. If prostatitis is not cured for a long time, various symptoms and discomfort worsen after sexual life, which can cause patients to develop a sense of disgust, which can lead to sexual dysfunction diseases such as impotence and premature ejaculation.
Moreover, having prostatitis can affect male fertility. If you have prostatitis, it can also affect the fertility of men. Because long-term chronic inflammation can cause changes in the composition of prostate fluid, which can affect the liquefaction time of semen and decrease sperm vitality, leading to male infertility.
Finally, male prostatitis can also lead to endocrine disorders, causing mental disorders. Under normal circumstances, the prostate can secrete a variety of active substances. When inflammation occurs in the prostate, endocrine disorders can cause neurasthenia, leading to mental disorders.
