What tests are needed for fungal prostatitis?

Patient's question:

Doctor, what tests are needed for fungal prostatitis? The previous tests I had, including prostatic fluid bacterial culture and semen bacterial culture, only included bacterial culture, mycoplasma, chlamydia, and gonococcus culture. The semen routine test did not include a fungal test, and the doctor said the prostatic fluid routine test was not performed.

Doctor's answer:

As you described, to carefully examine the symptoms of the prostate, the main manifestations are abnormalities in urination, abdominal pain, etc. It is recommended to have an ultrasound examination. If the condition is confirmed, medication treatment is still necessary, and the treatment effect may not be ideal. Western and Chinese medicine integration can be considered. There are many treatment methods for prostatitis, but because the symptoms of patients are different, the treatment methods adopted are also different. Therefore, it is necessary for patients to be diagnosed as soon as possible so that the correct treatment can be administered.
