Patient's question:

Doctor's answer:

Prostatitis is generally never associated with thirst. However, if there is frequent urination and a significant increase in urine volume with reduced water intake, thirst can occur. For your condition, treating prostatitis is the fundamental solution to eliminate the problem. If prostatitis is not treated promptly, it can lead to downward transmission and cause conditions such as seminal vesicle and epididymitis. The prostate is a special type of tissue organ, surrounded by a hard lipid capsule, which acts as a drug barrier, making it difficult for medications to penetrate to the affected area of the prostate. As a result, medication alone may not be effective in treating the condition.
