Gonorrhea and nongonococcal urethritis must be treated thoroughly at the earliest stage. Incomplete treatment may trigger complications such as prostatitis and epididymitis. Typical symptoms include dysuria, frequent nocturia, urgent micturition, frequent micturition, painful urination, hematuria and severe perineal pain. Severe cases may result in infertility.

Abnormal prostatic fluid reduces sperm survival rate and sperm count, leading to long-term infertility among married couples. Untreated chronic prostatitis can further induce erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, spermatorrhea, hematospermia, decreased sexual function and even complete loss of sexual capacity. This condition not only impairs physical health but also undermines family well-being.
