Question

What is the relationship between sexual life and kidney disease?

Answer

Here are several points to consider for kidney glomerulonephritis patients regarding their sexual life: First, patients in the acute stage should absolutely rest in bed and abstain from sexual activity. Second, for chronic glomerulonephritis patients, when their overall condition is good and the disease is stable, they can moderately engage in sexual activity, but the frequency should not be too high and the duration should not be too long. Third, when encountering sexual dysfunction, treatment of kidney disease should be proactive. Fourth, patients with uremia should strictly avoid sexual activity. Fifth, young female patients who desire to conceive must obtain the consent of their doctor.
