"Nino, I am not your doctor and am not in any position to tell you what to worry about and what not to worry about. This is just some things you can think about and discuss with your doctor(s)."
"So I guess I shouldn't be worrying about having bacteria in semen as long as I don't have any symptoms. I hope my urologist won't give me antibiotics again if there is no need for them.
Thank you for your time and making my situation…"
"So CPSI = 14. More to the point, you're not really describing prostatitis.
Keep in mind that our bodies are covered by bacteria. So to find them in a specimen is either sign of infection or just normal flora/colonization that has no…"
"Dear Dr. Amon
Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately I'm not a medical expert (I'm studying engineering) so I'm not familiar with urethral colonization. The only reason I mentioned chronic prostatitis is because my urologist…"
"Nino,
Are you not actually describing asymptomatic urethral colonization?What is the basis for diagnosing you with chronic prostatitis, which is associated with symptoms?
Have you done the CPSI? What is your score?"
Asymtomatic prostatitis keeps returning
Hello, I'm 21 years old, male, studying engineering. I eat very healthy food, do excersise and have no previous history of serious illness. I'm having problems with prostatitis. It all started 2 years ago. I only felt a small pressure around my left testicle. I did a lot of tests and went to a lot of doctors and they found out that I have a very small varicocele and most of them said surgery is not necessary. I did urethral swab 6 times for chlamydia, plasmids etc., I gave urine and semen…See More

- I'm 21 years old, male, studying engineering. I eat very healthy food, do excersise and have no previous history of serious illness. I'm having problems with prostatitis. It all started 2 years ago. I only felt a small pressure around my left testicle. I did a lot of tests and went to a lot of doctors and they found out that I have a very small varicocele and most of them said surgery is not necessary. I did urethral swab 6 times for chlamydia, plasmids etc., I gave urine and semen countless times during these 2 years and had rectal scope. Everything was fine except E. Colli and Enterococcus spp. in my semen. I was taking variety antibiotics for months. After my semen was tested negative for bacteria I was fine for a short period of time but E. Colli returned. I cured it again by taking antibiotics for almost half a year with pauses after every month. Now I have enterococcus spp. again in my semen and I'm very nervous about it. This time the only difference was I had to go to toilet 2 times per night (which I never did before) and that happened for a few nights and stopped (now I'm back to normal without having to wake up). Thats what made me go to doctor to get me tested again. I never felt any symptoms except small pressure around my left testicle that is supposed to be varicocele. I never had fever, pain, weird smell in urine or anything. My semen tests also show low count of white blood cells (one urologist told me that I don't have a real infection according to white blood cells).
