What is chronic nonbacterial prostatitis?

Patient's question:

At first, I thought it might be because the man is getting older, and problems in this area are always common. But later, when I realized that my symptoms of frequent urination and painful urination were particularly severe, I went to the hospital for a thorough examination. The doctor said this condition is called chronic non-bacterial prostatitis. I don't really understand what chronic non-bacterial prostatitis is?

Doctor's answer:

Chronic non-bacterial prostatitis refers to a type where the routine examination of prostatic fluid shows a decrease in lecithin corpuscles, while white blood cells are not excessively elevated. It may be related to overly frequent sexual activity or intercourse, or it could be a previous bacterial prostatitis that has been treated and cleared of bacteria. The treatment for this chronic non-bacterial prostatitis is relatively slow. Prostatitis has a significant impact on patients.
