Can prostatitis be cured?

Prostatitis is curable.

What are the misunderstandings about prostatitis?

1. Prostatitis cannot be cured

Many factors, such as excessive eating and overwork, can aggravate prostate congestion and cause recurring symptoms of prostatitis. However, no matter how often the symptoms recur, they will always be lighter than before taking the medicine until they disappear.

Therefore, chronic prostatitis is not incurable, but it is "incurable" because of improper treatment, lack of adherence to treatment, and lack of attention to prognosis, prevention and health care. As long as you can receive scientific and regular treatment and stay away from the influence of adverse factors, chronic prostatitis can be cured.

2. Chronic prostatitis and prostatic hyperplasia are the same thing

Patients often confuse the two, and some patients worry that chronic prostatitis will directly cause prostate hyperplasia.

In fact, these perceptions are incorrect. Chronic prostatitis and prostatic hyperplasia have different causes and pathologies. They are two completely different diseases and there is no necessary connection between the two.

3. Only antibiotics can cure chronic prostatitis

A considerable portion of chronic prostatitis is aseptic, while some chronic prostatitis is caused by some pathogenic microorganisms. If only antibiotics are used for treatment, it is naturally difficult to obtain good therapeutic effects.

4. Chronic prostatitis is contagious

Clinically, no pathogenic bacteria can be found in most cases of chronic prostatitis, which is called non-bacterial prostatitis.

This type of chronic prostatitis is not contagious. In addition, some patients' bacterial infections are also classified as "non-specific bacterial prostatitis". In addition, the female vagina has a certain degree of self-cleaning and disease resistance, so under normal circumstances, this type of chronic prostatitis patients can have a safe married life.

5. Chronic prostatitis is a sexually transmitted disease

Because prostatitis is difficult to cure, many people mistakenly believe it is a sexually transmitted disease. In fact, acute prostatitis is mainly caused by bacteria and is not a sexually transmitted disease.

Most inflammations originate from urethral bacteria, 80% of which are E. coli, which can invade the gland through the prostate duct. Other lesions in the body, such as tonsil pathogens, can also invade the prostate through lymph and blood. Usually there may be no symptoms, but prostatitis will be induced under specific external stimuli, such as drinking, colds, abstinence or excessive indulgence, perineal injury, long-distance cycling, emotional changes, urethral instrument examination, etc.
