Can prostate cysts affect fertility?
Prostate cysts do not affect male fertility issues, as the major factor influencing male fertility is sperm quality. If you are concerned about fertility, it is advisable to visit the urology department of a hospital for a routine semen analysis to ensure there are no issues with sperm quality. As long as the sperm quality is fine, there is no need to worry about fertility. Most patients with prostate cysts do not experience any discomfort and do not require special treatment. However, some larger prostate cysts may compress the urethra, leading to symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, incomplete urination, or complete blockage of the urethra causing urinary retention. In such cases, surgery to remove the cyst may be considered to restore normal urine flow.
