There are a lot of chronic prostatitis patients in the world, there are many treatments for them, like antibiotics and TCM, it is strange that some of they can’t be cured easily still. A doctor said just like catching a cold, chronic prostatitis is hard to be cured and it relapses easily for most of the patients have psychological problems. So it is necessary to put psychotherapy together with antibiotics or TCM.

It is a truth that more than 80% chronic prostatitis patients have some psychological disorders like insomnia, dreaminess, forgetfulness, decreased energy, feeling down, pessimistic, easy exhaustion, tension, anxiety or depression, 20%~50% of them have serious symptoms, they can have impotence, premature ejaculation or even suicidal tendency. These symptoms make chronic prostatitis more complex, difficult to be cured and relapse easily.

A study showed, patients who got a treatment for a long time without curing chronic prostatitis have premorbid characters, often they are introverted，sensitive, suspicious or even neurotic. Once they have chronic prostatitis or some abnormal feelings, they will be extremely worried all the day around, they don’t know what to do, often they pay too much attention to the disease and hurt themselves, they are afraid of the damage to their sex function, fertility, whether it is a STD, if chronic prostatitis may change into a cancer etc. They concentrate on one symptom or some symptoms and magnify their feelings, then they enter the vicious circle and can’t go out of it. They are worried about their health too much, which make uncomfortable feelings more apparent, for lacking corret science knowledge, they often treat some normal physical reactions to abnormal ones and make it come true in the end.

So these patients must get psychotherapies during the treatment to increase their confidence, doctors can tell them successful testimonials of patients who got the same disease and persuade them to learn more scientific knowledge and know the origin, feature and changing rules about the disease. Use psychotherapy can relieve patients’ tension, let them face the fact, follow the nature and relax. Use psychological cognitive therapy to make them know there is really something wrong with their mental health, but there is no need to be afraid or sad and help them firm the confidence of overcoming the disease.

Of course treatments also include antibiotics and TCM and they are more important for psychotherapy is only a supporting treatment. In order to cure chronic prostatitis from origin without getting it again, it is better for patients to use Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pill as a type of TCM, for it has no drug resistance or side effect which may be caused by antibiotics.
