Prostatitis (pros·ta·ti·tis) n: inflammation of the prostate gland. Characterized by perineal pain and irregular urination and (if severe) chills and fever.
Prostatitis may account for up to 25 percent of all office visits by young and middle-age men for complaints involving the genital and urinary systems. It is generally believed to be caused by a bacterial infection of the prostate gland.
Many infections of the male reproductive tract have no symptoms, and may go undiagnosed. An infection may have lasting effects on your health, day to day functions, and ability to have children.

Treatment: Our test may be able to catch your prostatitis in the early stages allowing your doctor to prescribe medication before you have the disabling symptoms of prostatic pain. The early stages of prostatitis are difficult to detect, therefore it is most commonly diagnosed by constant pelvic pain of the later stages. However with our new semen cytology and prostatitis check, we may be able to detect a prostatitis inflamation before it becomes symptomatic.

Second Opinion: Our kit is an easy and inexpensive way to get a second opinion about your fertility or prostatitis/infection diagnosis.
You do not need a doctors referral to get this test.
