Chronic prostatitis or chronic pelvic pain syndrome, have caused many troubles in my life, I have forgot how many kinds of antibiotic medicines I have taken for my diseases, I just know that I do not want to take any of them any more.

I want to know clearly about causes of my chronic prostatitis so that I can deal with it more easily, but my doctor cannot be sure about causes of my disease.

So, can anybody tell me what are chronic prostatitis causes?

Chronic prostatitis is associated with a combination of factors such as urethral infection, active sexual life, and decreased immunity. The adverse effects of incomplete treatment or overdose of antibiotics can prolong the course of the disease and complicate the condition, which can lead to its metastasis to chronic prostatitis.

The survey found that in the past 30 years, 350,000 patients with chronic prostatitis and epididymitis have chosen traditional Chinese medicine, such as acupuncture or herbal medicine like Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory pill, which is a patent drug. Seventy percent of patients with prostatitis say that they can see significant improvement after taking it for about one month, but for those patients with a longer course of disease, such as 2 to 5 years, it still needs to be treated for 1 to 3 months.
