Patient's question:
I am 33 years old and have had sexual activity for over ten years. I have also had asexuality. My partner has the same condition, and the itching is unbearable. It has been treated, but the symptoms are not very effective. I had a prostate test at a local top-tier hospital, which came back positive. The medication prescribed has helped a lot, but the itching persists. I have undergone drug resistance testing. Could you please advise on what medication is needed for treatment?Doctor's answer:
