My wife has been infertile for three years, but the root cause is actually my husband's prostatitis
Dandan and Ding Li have been married for three years, and her mother-in-law has been hoping to have a grandson to enjoy the joy of family life soon. Seeing other people's treasures come one after another, Dandan's own daughter-in-law's stomach has not been moving, let alone feeling anxious. Dan Dan and Ding Li are both modern urbanites who prioritize their careers. If you are infertile, you should be infertile. Ding Ke's family is also quite good, and they can enjoy their world without any burden.
Ding Li is puzzled. I didn't have any sexual infidelity and didn't feel any discomfort. Why did I suffer from prostatitis? The prostate is just an accessory gland of the male reproductive system, how can it cause male infertility?
The causes of chronic prostatitis
According to expert analysis, the incidence rate of prostatitis in young men has reached 5% and is on the rise. In the past, it was very rare for young men to suffer from prostatitis. Nowadays, young men generally face excessive work pressure, combined with smoking, drinking alcohol, consuming a large amount of spicy food, and engaging in unclean sexual behavior before marriage, which can cause adverse stimulation to the urethra and prostate, causing tissue congestion and vascular dilation, and increasing the risk of prostatitis. Especially for office workers, due to frequent sitting, prostate pressure can cause local blood circulation disorders; Also, being enthusiastic about cycling for fitness or long-term cycling can cause congestion and swelling of the prostate, which is not conducive to blood circulation and can even lead to prostatitis. If not treated thoroughly, it can turn into chronic prostatitis.
Clinical manifestations of chronic prostatitis
The clinical manifestations of patients with chronic prostatitis are quite inconsistent, some are asymptomatic, while others have obvious symptoms, which vary from person to person.
1. Symptomatic chronic prostatitis patients have significant individual differences in symptoms, and even the same patient may have different symptoms at different stages. The main manifestations are: changes in urination symptoms and urinary tract irritation symptoms (such as frequent urination, urgency, pain and discomfort in urination, residual urine or incomplete urination, "white dripping" at the urethral opening), sexual dysfunction, pain and discomfort in the anterior genitalia, neurological and psychiatric symptoms, etc.
2. Asymptomatic chronic prostatitis, a type of so-called latent prostatitis, is only discovered by physicians when seeking treatment for male infertility or sexual dysfunction. Beijing Shuguang Men's Hospital found 8 asymptomatic infertile patients caused by chronic prostatitis in a statistical analysis of 77 cases. There are also some cases of latent prostatitis, which are confirmed by the detection of pus cells or red blood cells during routine semen examination and further examination of the prostate. Therefore, even if the patient's clinical manifestations are not obvious, it does not mean that they have not developed the disease. Therefore, when diagnosing and treating male infertility and sexual dysfunction, attention should be paid to the possibility of developing chronic prostatitis.
Why Chronic Prostatitis Causes Male Infertility
90% of male semen is prostatic fluid and 10% is sperm. The prostate provides environment and nutrition for sperm survival. Prostatitis not only affects sexual function, but can also lead to male infertility. Especially after repeated attacks of chronic prostatitis, it can inhibit sperm motility and affect the quality of semen; In severe cases, sexual dysfunction may occur, such as erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation. Inflammatory changes in the prostate can alter the composition and physicochemical properties of semen, leading to a decrease in sperm motility, an increase in sperm death, and a series of diseases such as non liquefaction of semen. If bacterial prostatitis occurs, it can contain bacteria and toxins in semen, inhibit sperm motility, cause sperm poisoning, agglutination, and death, thereby significantly reducing the fertility of unmarried men.
Experts warn that once young men suffer from prostatitis, they must seek standardized treatment in regular hospitals. They must not blindly take medication or seek treatment in hospitals that do not have the necessary conditions. If the diagnosis lacks accuracy and the treatment and medication lack specificity, it is impossible to achieve ideal treatment results, leading to a significant increase in the risk of some men suffering from sexual dysfunction and infertility. Although the treatment of prostatitis is difficult, it is not complicated. The key lies in whether the patient can persevere in treatment. With the continuous development of modern medical equipment, there have been new breakthroughs in the treatment technology of prostatitis, such as the new generation prostate treatment and rehabilitation system, which can quickly, efficiently, and safely treat prostate diseases, achieving satisfactory treatment results.
