What does CP mean in UROLOGY

The cause of chronic prostatitis is unknown, but it is believed to be caused by bacterial or viral infections, trauma to the prostate, or a combination of both. Other factors that may contribute to the development of CP include menstrual cycle changes, stress, and diet.

Treatments for chronic prostatitis vary depending on the type and severity of symptoms. Common treatments include antibiotics, anti-inflammatory medications, alpha-blockers, and physical therapy. Other treatments may include lifestyle modifications such as stress reduction and exercise.

Yes, some cases of CP have been linked to infertility problems in men. However, many cases can be successfully treated with lifestyle modification and medical treatment and therefore do not necessarily lead to infertility issues.

While there is no definitive cure for CP, some natural remedies can help alleviate symptoms associated with it. These remedies include herbs like saw palmetto extract and quercetin; essential oils like tea tree oil; dietary changes like reducing sugar intake; supplements including zinc; and exercise such as swimming or yoga.

Currently there is no sure way to prevent CP since its cause is still unknown. However, taking proper precautions when engaging in sexual activity such as using condoms or practicing safer sex practices may reduce risk of infection which could potentially lead to CP later on in life.
