Is lycopene effective in treating prostatitis?

Patient's question:

Got a thorough check-up at the hospital and found prostatitis. It's said that lycopene is good for the prostate. Is this valuable?

Doctor's answer:

Lycopene has a certain effect on the treatment of prostatitis. Lycopene is an important carotenoid that is widely present in nature. In the human body, it is mainly stored in organs such as the testes, prostate, adrenal glands, liver, and blood. Lycopene can enhance sperm count, stabilize sperm motility, reduce the number of abnormal sperm, and can reduce the incidence of prostatitis and stabilize symptoms of male prostatitis. Lycopene cannot be generated by the human body itself and must be digested through exogenous food.
