Prostatitis is a common disease in andrology. The prostate secretes male semen. Some scientists have found some physical and chemical changes in the semen of patients with prostatitis. Under the influence of bacteria and bacterial toxins, semen will consume a lot of nutrients, and will change the PH value of semen and increase the viscosity of semen. These reasons will affect the movement of sperm, and colleagues will also stimulate the body to produce anti-sperm antibodies, which may directly lead to male infertility.

Relationship between prostatitis and male infertility

First, when men suffer from prostatitis, the secretion of prostatic fluid will also decrease, which directly leads to the decrease of semen volume, which is not conducive to the survival and activity of sperm. In addition, due to the decrease of activity in prostatic fluid, the coagulation factor of sperm increases, and the semen is gelatinous after being excreted, which also delays the liquefaction time of semen and hinders the normal activity of sperm. Therefore, in some male infertility, chronic prostatitis is a cause that cannot be ignored.

Second, when men suffer from prostatitis, the PH value of semen will also decrease, and the pH value of semen will be acidic. Most seriously, when the pH value of semen drops to 6-6.5, which is the minimum requirement of sperm, sperm will die, thus affecting male fertility.

Third, after prostate inflammation, there will be a large number of bacteria, and bacterial toxins will also secrete some inflammatory objects. Secreted harmful substances will consume nutrients and oxygen in semen, thus affecting sperm survival rate and causing male infertility. Of course, whether there is a relationship between chronic prostatitis and fertility is not fully understood in science. In reality, it is also found that most men with chronic prostatitis have good fertility and normal sexual function, although the inflammation is not light. In today's advanced medicine, chronic prostatitis can still be cured, so young people with chronic prostatitis should not worry too much.

Prostatitis and male infertility are just some introductions. Men suffering from prostate cancer must be actively treated and don't add too much burden to their hearts. Because some doctors have found patients with prostatitis in clinic for many years, their fertility has not been greatly affected. Therefore, once male friends find out prostatitis, don't be overly nervous for fear of infertility. Be sure to go to the hospital for scientific treatment as soon as possible.
