Prostatitis

2025-05-27 08:30:18
My brother had complained of pain while peeing and ejaculation. Upon consulting an urologist he was diagnosed with chronic prostatitis. So he underwent semen culture test thrice. And all the three time it came back positive. After the first report he was put on IV thrice a day for seven days. And since it came back positive after the first round again he was put on IV again twice a day for seven days. again after that it is positive. They had checked him for resistance and was given antibiotics which were reported sensitive. At this point we are worried and not sure if our doctor is on the right track so before we could book an appointment with another urologist wanted to get some suggestions here. Is it normal for semen culture to be positive for this long even after antibiotics. abdomen and pelvic scan, cbc, creatinine all were normal. uroflow was below normal. what else should he get tested for.
