How long does it take to treat chronic prostatitis?

Patient's question:

I have been taking medication for one and a half months, and the ultrasound results are still about the same as before. Enlarged prostate and seminal vesicle cyst. Is this seminal vesicle cyst caused by the enlarged prostate? The doctor said it's congenital and nothing to worry about. But I'm still not quite sure

Doctor's answer:

Yes, this is a cyst of the seminal duct. This is congenital, and it generally doesn't interfere with anything, so there's no need to worry. You are taking oral medication to suppress prostatitis, mainly because your symptoms have disappeared. Even if it heals on its own, there's no need to choose based on the size of the follow-up ultrasound. For patients with prostatitis, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the disease. If it's not treated in time, it can affect fertility. Therefore, patients should receive timely medication treatment and pay more attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods.
