I'm being treated for bacterial prostatitis. I'm feeling pretty much back to normal but I have a question related to the possibility of my condition not actually being prostatitis but something else. I have had a full blood profile that shows I have no STDs, but I am still curious about something:
I recently had a urinalysis done that showed I was completely clear of pathogens in a 24 hour and 48 hour culture. My question is...let's say in theory I did NOT have prostatitis, but instead had chlamydia or gonorrhea, would something/anything show up on the urinalysis that would tip off that something was wrong?
I am a virgin in the term of intercourse, but I have had oral sex and my symptoms did show up after receiving oral sex. But, I showed no symptoms of either of those diseases but all symptoms pointed to prostatitis so the doctor just considered it a coincidence since I have been treated for prostatitis in the past.
So, my curiosity is still raised since my symptoms came on after oral. I have a round of Zithromax I could take just in case.
MD Hi,
Thank you for posting your query.
First of all, I wish to reassure you that there is no evidence of any urinary tract infection (UTI) or sexually transmitted disease (STD) in your case.
Both Chlamydia and gonococci infections, if present, would show up in urine culture. So, a negative...

MD Hello and thanks for the query.
Chlamydia infection could theoretically be related to prostatitis but this is unlikely.
In your case it is important for you to get tested and if you are negative for chlamydia it would help your doctor decide on appropriate treatment.
Also, you are young to be...

Recent questions on Prostatitis
MD Doctor, I am suffering from urine infection for the last 2 months and on antibiotics which includes 32 IV injections. During treatment my pus cells are under control, but when on low dose of antibiotics or discontinued, pus cell are increasing to 80-100. Urine culture shows more than 1,00,000 e coli bacterial. Why this is happening? Is there no permanent cure for this infection?
MD Hello, I'm a 26-year old youngster. I have since my senior middle school masturbated. About two and a half years ago, I suffered from chronic prostatitis. Ahead of that I seldom drank water. When I became a writing translator after graduating from university, I have to be sedentary for a whole day. To do the job well, I have to contain my piss. Besides, I work under pressure. I have spent so much money in curing my disease, which ended in failure. Now I still need to work under pressure and to be sedentary, but I drink about eight cups of water a day. Besides, I masturbate one time a week. Chinese doctors say that people sufferring from prostatitis should not do that, but that is permitted under Western medical survey, so what should I do? How could I be fully recovered？
MD Hi! The urologist diagnosis a prostatitis at me. At research of my sperm he have found out Serratia liquefaciens. Treatment by antibiotics is recommended to me. Whether you consider it necessary? As far as I know Serratia liquefaciens are conditionally pathogenic microorganisms. Sorry for my English. Yours faithfully, Georgiy, Russia.
