Patient's question:
In the past two or three months, I've been feeling difficulty urinating, pain, and a lack of energy during sexual activity, with premature ejaculation. When squatting, I also feel a sensation. I was really worried and went to the hospital for a check-up. The doctor said it was chronic prostatitis. So, how did this condition come about?Doctor's answer:
Chronic non-bacterial prostatitis, clinically, is mainly caused by prolonged sitting or excessively frequent sexual activity. Other factors such as prolonged intercourse can also lead to chronic acute prostatitis. For clinical diagnosis, it is necessary to go to a local hospital, where tests such as prostatic fluid analysis or color Doppler ultrasound of the prostate can be performed to confirm the diagnosis. Treatment is typically carried out using conventional methods. If the condition is chronic non-bacterial prostatitis, during clinical diagnosis and treatment, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) herbal remedies can be used. Clinically, various oral medications such as Qianmao Shutong capsules or Pule'an tablets can be prescribed.
