Patient's question:
Patient: Male, 43 years old. The results of the color Doppler ultrasound and prostatic fluid examination indicated chronic prostatitis and benign prostatic hyperplasia. I saw that Dr. Li Haiping prescribed the same formula for many patients, claiming it was a traditional remedy for premature ejaculation, prostatitis, and other conditions. Is this medicine really that miraculous?[Herbal Formula]

The pharmacy staff have never heard of Sea cucumber powder. What exactly is it? Is it really that effective when the same formula is used for 100 patients? Do all 100 patients have the same condition? Is this medicine prescribed without considering individual differences?
Doctor's answer:
Theoretically speaking, there is no Chinese herbal formula that is suitable for all types of prostatitis, because everyone's syndrome pattern cannot be exactly the same.Advice: It is recommended not to easily trust those so-called advertisements. Instead, it is better to consult a professional TCM practitioner for syndrome differentiation and treatment, and appropriately determine the appropriate formula, such as Xiaoyao Powder, Prostatitis Decoction, and Xuefu Zhuyu Decoction, etc., to achieve better recovery. Wishing you good health!
Prostatitis conditions tend to fluctuate, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, it is important to actively seek diagnosis in professional and regular hospitals and consider treatment based on thorough examination results. Additionally, attention should be paid to controlling sexual activity and maintaining a positive mood. Finally, wishing all patients a speedy recovery.
