Does UTI cause weak erections?
human
Hi, I went to the doctor because of a very small external hemmoroid that was treated with a cream. I told my doctor that for the past 10 days I have been getting weak erections.She asked me do i drink water,and i told her not much. After urinating in a cup she said i have a urinary tract infection. I was given the antibiotic Sulfameth for 2 weeks. I'm on the 7th day. My question is: Is the weak erections that don't last long most likely coming from the U.T.I.? . I am only 26 years old and have never had erection problems. And how long will it take to go away?

Hi ,   Penile erection is due to engorgement of blood in cavernous tissue present  in penis  . Infection which occurs in urinary tract hence has almost no relation with penile erection . If you have UTIrevealed by urine investigation of cuture and sensitivity then it is needed to be treated according to urin cs  report .    Regarding your penile erection problem u need to visit a urology clinic n need to find out the cause (neurological , cardiovascular, local,.....)through clinical examinations n investigation  and treated accordingly . As its recent onset so the prognosis can be good .Hope it ll help Thanks n regards
