Dr Mangat, what causes Chronic Prostatitis? Regarding my medications and supplements. I take 25mg of Zoloft, 4000 IU of vitamin D, 340 mg of Omega 3, a digestive supplement that consists of Zinc and some Chinese blend, Vitamin B6 and Vitamin B12, and a supplement Citrulline, all in the morning. In the evening I take Pamelor 10mg, Melatonin 10mg, and a Probiotic at bed time. I do work out three times a week along with 15 minutes of Sauna. My wife thinks My burning is a result of dehydration.
