What is the reason for nongonococcal prostatitis caused by gonorrhea?

Patient's question:

Why is prostatitis caused by gonorrhea considered aseptic? Or was the bacteria in the prostate cured by the intravenous ceftriaxone treatment?

Doctor's answer:

Patient, male, 30 years old, with gonococcal infection. After treatment, a careful examination of prostatic fluid was performed, showing a decrease in lecithin bodies and an increase in white blood cells, which can be diagnosed as gonorrhea and prostatitis. It is recommended that the patient still needs anti-infection treatment, such as ceftriaxone, levofloxacin, and Prostect, etc. Gonorrhea is a sexually transmitted disease, so both sexual partners should be treated to prevent cross-infection. Drink plenty of water and maintain urination.
In addition, during the treatment of prostatitis, in addition to immediate treatment, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also particularly important. The patient must always maintain a cheerful mood and a proper diet to avoid unnecessary interference with the complete recovery of prostatitis.
