Can a cystoscopy cause male infertility?

Hello, I am 35 years old and will be going for a cystoscopy, I was wondering if it can cause fertility? Are side affects of cystoscopy rare? My issue is frequent urination at night, although my prostate appears normal.

I would appreciate any support on this topic... Thanks guys.

Hello,
Cystoscopy does not cause infertility. Infact it is used as an investigative tool to find out the cause of infertility and reverse it.

It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
