In theory, long-term inflammation in the prostate could promote the development of cancer in the prostate, but there is no evidence to suggest that this actually happens. Similarly, there is nothing to suggest that BPH is more common among chronic prostatitis sufferers.
Chronic prostatitis affects men differently, with varying degrees of discomfort or pain.
Chronic Prostatitis is a contagious disease. You can live your life normally and continue sexual relations, but you must wear condom and with caution.
Having chronic prostatitis does not increase your risk of developing prostate cancer or any other prostate or kidney disease. But even if your chronic prostatitis is cured, you should continue to have regular examinations to detect prostate cancer.
Men who have had chronic prostatitis once are more likely to get it again. Antibiotics may not get into the prostate gland well. Small amounts of bacteria might "hide" in the prostate and not be killed by antibiotics. Once you stop taking the antibiotic, the infection can get bad again. If this happens, you might have to take antibiotics for a longer period of time to prevent another infection. Prostatitis that is caused by infection is often chronic. If you have this kind of prostatitis, you might have to take prostate medicine for a long time.
There are four main types of prostatitis that fall under two groups, chronic bacterial and nonbacterial prostatitis:
Bacterial Prostatitis
Acute bacterial prostatitis is caused by bacteria and is the easiest to diagnose and effectively treat, although severe complications may develop if not treated quickly. The least common form of prostatitis, acute bacterial prostatitis can be life-threatening if the prostate infection is left untreated. Antibiotics can treat this form of chronic prostatitis. Chronic bacterial prostatitis is quite a common form of prostatitis, and is caused by an underlying problem in the prostate which becomes the focus for bacteria in the urinary tract. It is a common cause of frequent urinary tract infections in men. Antibiotics can be used to treat this prostate condition.
Nonbacterial prostatitis
Chronic nonbacterial prostatitis (chronic pelvic pain syndrome) is an inflamed prostate without bacteria and is the form of prostatitis least understood. Urinary tract infections are not experienced by men with this form of prostatitis. Prostate symptoms may disappear and then reappear later on, and there is no specific treatment for it, so management is usually aimed at prostate symptom relief such as anti-inflammatory drugs. For each individual with this form of chronic prostatitis there may be a different treatment. Stress often aggravates this condition, and measures to reduce stress including pelvic floor physiotherapy or relaxation are often needed. Asymptomatic inflammatory prostatitis (prostatodynia) is a form of chronic prostatitis without inflammation and without bacteria; however, the man often feels the same discomfort as experienced with more common forms of prostatitis. Diagnosis for this type of prostatitis is made when cells that fight infection are found in the man’s semen.
Chronic Prostatitis is an extremely frustrating disease for both the patient and his prostate physician. It can seriously affect a patient's quality of life. The correct diagnosis of the prostatitis problem is difficult and it cannot always be cured. However, prostatitis is a treatable disease and one can usually get relief from major prostate symptoms by following the recommended treatment.
