Chronic Prostatitis and Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome

Chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS) is a multifactorial condition characterized by pelvic discomfort, urinary symptoms, and sexual dysfunction.

The etiology is complex, involving inflammatory, neuromuscular, and psychological factors. Diagnosis is primarily clinical after excluding bacterial infection.

Management often requires multimodal therapy including alpha-blockers, anti-inflammatory agents, pelvic floor physical therapy, and psychological support.

Holistic treatment strategies improve patient quality of life erotic and symptom control.
