Prostate surgery will not affect sexual function, need to be judged according to the specific circumstances.
If the patient needs surgery because of prostate hyperplasia, in the case of small local lesions, no nerve wrap, usually surgery will not cause damage to the nerve, generally will not affect sexual function. But if the patient because of prostate cancer surgery, due to the tumor is large, special location, etc., resulting in surgical treatment nerve damage, it can affect sexual function.
When the patient has prostate disease, need to choose a regular hospital for surgical treatment.
