Patient's question:
My brother is already 36 years old this year, and he only got married this year. Since he is the only boy in the family, both my parents urge him and his sister-in-law to have children soon. However, when my brother had a thorough medical check-up, he discovered prostatitis. What are the symptoms and treatments for prostatitis?Doctor's answer:
The symptoms of prostatitis are characterized by recurring urinary frequency, urgency, dysuria, and a feeling of incomplete urination. It can also affect normal sexual function. It is important to note that prostatic fluid is a significant component of semen. If the prostate experiences problems again, it can directly impact semen quality, which is detrimental to women's health. For the treatment of prostatitis, it is essential to identify the type of inflammation and its underlying causes to provide targeted medication.
