Will prostatitis cause premature ejaculation?

Among all male diseases, prostatitis is the most common one. However, men who suffer from prostatitis are usually middle-aged and elderly people. After all, young people's prostates are basically fine. It can be said that most men in the world may be tortured by prostate problems, so preventing prostatitis is what men should do in life. So, will prostatitis cause premature ejaculation?

Does prostatitis cause premature ejaculation?

Many patients are puzzled by the question of whether prostatitis causes premature ejaculation. In fact, according to a large number of clinical case analyses, it can be found that many patients with prostatitis do suffer from sexual dysfunction such as premature ejaculation after the onset of the disease.

Many people are confused about this, because prostatitis, as a prostate disease, is completely unrelated to premature ejaculation, a sexual dysfunction disease. Why do I have premature ejaculation after the onset of inflammation? In fact, facing the question of whether prostatitis causes premature ejaculation, although prostatitis itself does not cause premature ejaculation, under the stimulation of long-term chronic inflammation, male patients may experience tension and excitement of sensory nerves and sympathetic nerves. The excitement of sensory nerves will lead to increased sensitivity, which will be transmitted to the brain center faster, so that the patient will reach the ejaculation threshold faster and premature ejaculation will occur.

In addition to causing premature ejaculation and affecting sexual ability, what other harms does prostatitis have?

(1) Causes chronic nephritis

If prostatitis is not treated promptly and effectively, it may cause prostate hyperplasia as the condition worsens, resulting in compression of the bladder outlet. When the urine cannot be completely emptied and residual urine occurs, it may cause bacterial reproduction and growth, eventually leading to urinary tract infection. When the condition worsens, hydronephrosis, nephritis, etc. may occur.

(2) Impact on fertility

Long-term prostatitis may cause changes in the composition of prostatic fluid, especially affecting the secretory function of the prostate, which will eventually affect the liquefaction time of semen, leading to a decrease in sperm motility and thus causing infertility.
