Patient's question:
Last year, I was diagnosed with prostatitis. Even after taking medication, it hasn't stabilized. Recently, I've noticed a lack of energy and extreme fatigue. A thorough examination at the hospital only confirmed the prostatitis. Could you please tell me what the relationship is between prostatitis and fatigue?Doctor's answer:
You have chronic prostatitis. Chronic prostatitis is a common disease in the male urinary and reproductive system, characterized by a long course of illness and a tendency to recur repeatedly. Prostatitis is not solely limited to urinary system symptoms and reduced sexual function. It can also lead to mental and neurological symptoms, such as dizziness, head fullness, fatigue, exhaustion, neurasthenia, low mood, anxiety, and worry, among others.
