About two year ago I was diagnosed with actue prostatitis and placed on cipro
for 10 days, doctor said it was no big deal and just a bacterial infection, as
many of you have heard before I'm sure. The problem is that every once in a
while it flairs up again, usually after dry humping it seems like.
My confusion is this, I have no symptoms of prostatitis, I have no pain, no
frequent urination and the only time that blood seems to be present is durind
ejaculation and urinating afterwards. Bacterial cultures of my urine have come
back negative. I refuse to beleive that it is bacterial in nature due to the
fact that I haven't any type of sex in over a month and suddenly after a round
of dry humpin with girlfirend it reappears.
Hears exactly what happens.
-After ejaculation is extremely bloody, some pain before ejactulation, guess
blood.
-Urine is extremely bloody passing large clots, usually clears up and bleeding
goes away.
-However masturbation seems to not produce the same results, with most times
being normal.
Has anyone had similiar experiences at all and heard anything of this, No
doctor seems to know and urologists usually say Bacterial Prostatitis.
Is it possible to have developed a weak prostate? Can excedrin or lots of
coofee or anything else have anything to do with this?

Dear Confused,
You must be quite frightened. Blood in ejaculate could mean that there
is an infection in your balls. You have apparently no symptoms of an
enlarged prostate. You might need to take a course of antibiotics that
are specifically intended for testicle infections. Nearly all
prostatitis is bacterial. The thing about the prostate is that it is
extremely slow to absorb antibiotics. You were 10 days on ciproxin.
There are people on this group who have been 3 months on ciproxin.
What do you mean exactly by dry humping? Are you going for a long time
without ejaculation. Are you crushing your genitals against your
girlfriend's body? You might be breaking small blood vessels when you
do this.
In general sex is good for you. Holding back your ejaculation for long
periods may be harmful. Relax and give your balls a break.
Kind regards
