Treatment options for chronic prostatitis include a combination of medication, surgery, and lifestyle changes.
Surgery
Transurethral resection of the prostate may be necessary if antibiotic therapy is unsuccessful or the condition keeps returning. This surgery is usually not performed on younger men because it carries a risk of retrograde ejaculation, which can lead to sterility, impotence, and incontinence.
Prostate massage and myofascial release are other treatments that may help this condition.
