Many people believe that infertility is generally caused by infection or congenital factors. But some infertility starts with some strange sexual dysfunction, among which retrograde ejaculation is the most obvious form of infertility. These patients with retrograde ejaculation are unable to ejaculate like normal men during sexual intercourse, which is not only very troublesome during normal behavior, but also affects later fertility? Can this retrograde ejaculation be treated?

1、 Causes of retrograde ejaculation

Retrograde ejaculation refers to sexual intercourse where orgasm can be achieved and there is a sense of ejaculation, but no semen is discharged from the urethra and the semen flows retrograde into the bladder. Mainly due to the inability to close the bladder neck or excessive resistance of the membranous urethra. Go for urological examination or surgical treatment: bladder neck reconstruction and urethral dilation. Perhaps the most common reason for semen reflux to the bladder after relaxation of the bladder neck. Another situation may be caused by medication, for example, if some drugs are used to treat prostate hyperplasia, it may occur. If you have any problems, you can adjust and treat them without worrying too much. Reverse ejaculation may be caused by prostate disease or by individuals experiencing frequent ejaculation over a long period of time. In addition, there may be a possibility of genital malformations. We need to go to the hospital for prostate ultrasound and routine prostate fluid examination, and make a judgment based on the results. For some severe deformities, surgical treatment is required.

2、 Can retrograde ejaculation be treated?

Retrograde ejaculation can be treated through surgery or medication. If there is a history of bladder neck surgery, cystoscopy Y-V plasty can be performed after diagnosis. Generally, hospitals at or above the county level can perform this surgery. If the patient has sympathetic dysfunction, they can be treated with drugs such as adrenaline or anticholinergic drugs according to the specific situation. However, the medication has side effects and should be taken under the guidance of a doctor. Do not take it privately. Urethral dilation is effective for congenital urethral stricture, while bladder neck reconstruction is effective for bladder neck relaxation. Controlling blood sugar and maintaining it at normal levels can prevent retrograde ejaculation. Assisted reproductive technology, there is no need to worry about transurethral surgery caused by retrograde ejaculation in patients. Assisted reproductive technology can be used to solve fertility problems, such as in vitro fertilization and testicular puncture, in order to achieve the goal of reproduction.

3、 Does retrograde ejaculation affect fertility?

Retrograde ejaculation refers to the injection of semen into the bladder during orgasm, rather than outside the body. Retrograde ejaculation affects fertility, mainly because semen is not injected into the other person's vagina, causing sperm to be unable to combine with the egg and therefore unable to conceive, which has an impact on fertility. Just like retrograde ejaculation, it can affect a man's sexual and psychological life for so long and may affect fertility issues! Because semen is not injected into the vagina, it leads to infertility.

Overall, retrograde ejaculation is a serious organic infertility, which not only prevents fertility but also has a significant psychological impact on patients. Although retrograde ejaculation does not produce significant pathogenic symptoms and does not cause pain to patients, the psychological pressure can be enormous and if not treated, it is likely to become even more severe. But overall, the treatment is relatively simple, as long as surgery is performed, it can almost be cured 100%!
