A member asked:
Will my prostatitis get used to doxycycline ? as cleared it within a month first time , took 3 months second time , only 1 that helps , flare up now

See answer: Prostatitis can mean many things, and i suspect in your case there may be reason to consider an alternative explanation for your symptoms. Many men have symptoms of the lower urinary tract labeled as "prostatitis" yet bacterial infection is undetectable. The emergence of resistant bacteria is a major public health problem due to widespread unwarranted antibiotic use. Google the term "cpps".
