Since the free vaccination of the new crown vaccine, snap, oh so fast ~ (Quotes from Ma Baoguo, meaning that even those who are fast can’t keep up) The number of doses of the new crown vaccine has exceeded 1 billion, but under the incident, there are still hidden dangers There are some hidden dangers, such as some people having adverse reactions after being vaccinated.

A male netizen’s opinion (may contain controversial views):

After two days of taking the (new crown vaccine), I feel that my sexual desire is reduced, I don’t have morning erections, and the erection strength is not as good as before. I'm not an exception. Both men and women have this phenomenon. They all have a weakened sexual desire. They may not feel it if they are over thirty years old, but I am only 25 and the feeling is very obvious. Wait for my follow-up update next week. Don't get vaccinated so easily. , it is not compulsory to get vaccinated now, no matter how well the domestic epidemic is controlled, don’t worry, wait...

What is the impact of the new coronavirus on Impact on men’s sexual function

A research team from Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University found that the serum levels of luteinizing hormone (LH) and prolactin (PRL) in people infected with COVID-19 were significantly increased, while testosterone (TS) and The ratio of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) to serum luteinizing hormone (LH) was significantly reduced.

1. The trend of elevated FSH and LH is very similar to clinical impairment of spermatogenic function or even non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA). resemblance.

2. Elevated levels of prolactin (PRL) cause male sexual hypofunction (decreased sexual desire), erectile dysfunction (ED, commonly known as One of the common causes of impotence.

Regarding male fertility: There is currently no clear evidence that the new coronavirus will have a direct impact on male fertility, but there must be indirect effects. Relevant scientists speculate that this effect is mainly caused by destroying the microenvironment of spermatogenesis.

Regarding male fertility: Leydig cells, the main source of androgens, are also the main target cells affected by the new coronavirus, and they are not protected by the blood-testis barrier. Therefore, if infection with the new coronavirus is complicated by orchitis, this will have a direct impact on men's endocrine homeostasis.

Mauro Gacci of the University of Florence, Italy, and others found in a study that 25% of men who recovered from COVID-19 infection developed azoospermia or oligospermia.

, which reminds us that we should evaluate the semen quality of those who have recovered from COVID-19 of childbearing age.

The relationship between the new coronavirus vaccine and the new coronavirus

At this time, someone will ask: What did I get? What is the relationship between the new coronavirus vaccine and the new coronavirus?

Vaccines are automatic immunizations used to prevent infectious diseases made from pathogenic microorganisms (such as bacteria, rickettsiae, viruses, etc.) and their metabolites through artificial attenuation, inactivation or genetic modification. preparation. The essence is that each person's immune system produces antibodies to resist the virus.

The domestic new coronavirus vaccine is an inactivated vaccine (referring to culturing the virus first, and then inactivating it with heat or chemicals to make it lose its infectivity). It produces specific neutralization through the body's immunity. Combined antibodies, thereby exerting a protective effect.

In other words - the essence of the vaccine is a virus, but the form of the vaccine is not a virus.

It is worth mentioning that vaccination with the COVID-19 vaccine may not necessarily produce 100% antibodies. After the body produces antibodies, it does not mean that you will not be infected with the new coronavirus, but the chance is much smaller, and the symptoms after infection will be milder.

What’s more, the current mutant strain of the new coronavirus “Delta” has spread to Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Dongguan and other places. Vaccines correspond to specific antigens. The new coronavirus may mutate a hundred times or a thousand times.

Finally, the country’s call for free COVID-19 vaccination is “voluntary”. If you are willing to be vaccinated, you can get it, and if you don’t want to be vaccinated, you can’t get it. , no matter what choice you make, you need to bear the corresponding risks.

If you want to get the COVID-19 vaccine but don’t want to worry about affecting your fertility, fertility preservation (sperm cryopreservation) may be the safest method for men who have not yet given birth.
