Many reproductive diseases in the human body can cause certain health damage and may also affect natural fertility. Among these reproductive diseases, the most common is various inflammations. There are various types of cervicitis, salpingitis, orchitis, and so on. And there is also an unknown inflammation among them, which is the epididymitis that men are prone to. So will this epididymitis affect giving birth? Can this disease self heal without treatment?

1、 Etiology of epididymitis

Bacterial infection causes epididymitis. Most men's underwear has a double layer front that tightly wraps the genitals together. Over time, the perineum will be in a state of high temperature and humidity, which is prone to the growth of bacteria. In today's society, many men need to sit for long periods of time due to work, as well as driving to and from work, which can cause pressure on the epididymis and affect its blood circulation. Under the influence of these factors, epididymitis may be induced. Some bad habits may also cause epididymitis, such as bad sexual habits and forced interruption of sexual intercourse. In addition, poor dietary habits may also cause epididymitis. If there is inflammation in the genitourinary system, these bacteria will enter the epididymis through the vas deferens and rapidly multiply within the epididymis, causing epididymitis. Epididymitis mainly occurs in middle-aged men and is mainly affected by the pressure of their work and life. If excessive fatigue occurs, it can lead to a decrease in resistance, leading to epididymitis.

2、 Does epididymitis affect childbirth?

Epididymitis does not necessarily affect fertility. When epididymitis occurs, there are usually local inflammatory changes in the tail of the epididymis, causing blockage of the epididymis duct. Because the epididymis is the place where sperm acquire activity after maturity, if not cured in a timely manner, it can affect sperm, leading to immaturity, making it difficult for sperm and eggs to combine smoothly, reducing their fertilization ability, and thus affecting fertility. But as long as epididymitis is detected, effective antibiotics should be used as soon as possible, and bed rest should be avoided as much as possible. After the epididymitis is cured, it will not affect the birth of the child. A few patients can cause reproductive dysfunction. Because epididymitis often occurs on one side, it can cause varying degrees of epididymal duct obstruction on the affected side!

3、 Can epididymitis self heal without treatment?

Epididymitis is a disease that does not self heal and there is no possibility of self healing. After the patient is diagnosed with epididymitis, it is necessary to treat it as soon as possible, otherwise it will cause many harm and adverse effects on the patient's body. In severe cases, it can lead to symptoms of infertility and affect the health of the patient's marital life. Some anti-inflammatory drugs can be used for treatment and have good effects, such as metronidazole, cephalosporins, etc. Patients cannot ignore, cannot. Patients must actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment. When the drug treatment effect is not good or the patient's condition is severe, surgical treatment must be actively adopted. Surgical treatment is more effective and the effect will be faster. Care must be taken after surgery. Do not engage in sexual activity for a short period of time, and do not eat spicy or cold foods that are highly stimulating. Patients must pay attention to drinking more water and eating more vegetables and fruits as much as possible, which is beneficial for their health.

Although epididymitis is a non self-healing disease, it may not have a significant impact on natural reproduction, and if it is not very severe, it will not have an impact. But if inflammation causes severe enlargement of the epididymis, it will definitely block the normal vas deferens channel! If this situation occurs, it is necessary to go to the hospital for formal treatment, otherwise the situation will be even more serious and even threaten lifelong reproductive ability!
