Patient's question:
I am desperately asking for help from the doctor. In the next few days, we have to go for a health check-up at school. However, yesterday, my teacher said we need to collect prostatic fluid for a detailed examination. But I forgot whether prostatic fluid is blood cells or red blood cells. So, I would like to ask the doctor here: Are they blood cells or red blood cells?Doctor's answer:
Prostatic fluid refers to the secretion of the prostate, which can be used to infer the health status of the prostate. The careful examination process involves stimulating the prostate and then collecting natural secretions. The results of this examination generally do not show excessive red blood cells or white blood cells. However, if the test results indicate that the number of these two types of cells continues to increase, it may suggest the possibility of prostatitis. Further examination with a color Doppler ultrasound of the prostate is necessary to aid in diagnosis and treatment. Prostatitis can be relieved, but the treatment period is usually long, and there is a high risk of recurrence after treatment. Therefore, it is essential to actively cooperate with the doctor during the treatment.
