Bacteria usually reacts well to prostatitis injections. Simple bacteria prostatitis infection with no previous oral antibiotics medication has the highest cure rate among all groups of prostatitis.

Prostatitis with mixed infections such as bacteria and Ureaplasma or Mycoplasma, are more complicated. This type of infections inflict more damage to the prostate glands and are able to change the texture of prostate glands with blockage. Plus the Ureaplasma and Mycoplasma are more stubborn and resilient with antibiotics. Previous oral antibiotics medication add the the complexity of the prostatitis treatment and that also add some treatment days to the duration of treatment.

If the prostatitis infection is more than five years. The damage to the prostate is much more serious and blockage is more compact, resulting in more time for softening process to take place. This group of prostatitis infection is the most difficult cases. They should be prepared for a bumpy ride along the treatment process. Patience and determination are mandatory for a successful cure.
