Did having dengue fever six months ago have any long-term effects on my sex life? I've been worried if it might still be impacting my health in some way. I'm just not sure if that's why things feel a bit different now. Could there be any connection?

Dengue fever itself does not directly affect one's sex life, but the physical and emotional exhaustion, fatigue, and weakness that can linger for several months after recovery may impact libido, erectile function

Having had dengue fever six months ago is unlikely to cause long-term effects on your sex life for most men. Dengue is primarily an acute viral illness that typically resolves without lasting damage. However, some people may experience prolonged fatigue or weakness after recovery, which could temporarily affect sexual desire or performance.
Key points to consider:
- Fatigue and recovery: Post-viral fatigue can last weeks to months, potentially reducing energy levels and libido.
- No direct impact on sexual organs: Dengue does not usually affect reproductive organs or hormone levels directly.
- Psychological factors: Stress or anxiety related to illness might influence sexual function.
If you notice persistent issues such as decreased libido, erectile dysfunction, or other sexual health concerns lasting beyond your recovery period, it would be a good idea to consult a healthcare professional. They can evaluate for other causes and provide appropriate guidance or treatment.
Overall, most men regain their normal sexual function after recovering from dengue fever without any long-term problems.

View allI'm 24 and I've been masturbating a lot, almost like it's become a habit I can't break. Lately, I've been feeling really low and weak because of it. I've noticed that the nerves on my penis are super visible, and I constantly feel sensations there, even when I'm just sitting around doing nothing. It's kind of embarrassing to say, but I've been needing to urinate like 23 times within a span of just 4 hours, which is really affecting my daily life. This whole situation is really distracting me.
