How long does it take to treat chronic prostatitis

Patient's question:

A few days ago, I had dysuria. The check revealed asymptomatic chronic prostatitis. How long does it take to treat chronic prostatitis?

Doctor's answer:

The treatment of the prostate primarily involves medication based on each individual's specific condition. Since the prostate is covered by a capsule, most medications struggle to penetrate it, so often, medication alone is not very effective. It is recommended to adopt a comprehensive treatment approach. Your case is bacterial prostatitis.
First, it should be noted that the treatment period for this type of prostatitis is relatively long, at least 4 to 6 weeks. Therefore, during the treatment, you must persist with it and should not stop medication on your own if your symptoms improve or disappear. Otherwise, the previous medication will be wasted. It is essential to follow the guidance of a doctor.
