Chronic prostatitis is a disease with an unknown etiology that affects a large number of men. The optimal management for category III chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS) is unknown. The recent years have seen a significant increase in research efforts to understand, classify and treat CP/CPPS. Standard treatment usually consists of prolonged courses of antibiotics, even though well-designed clinical trials have failed to demonstrate their efficacy. Recent treatment strategies with some evidence of efficacy include: alpha-blockers, anti-inflammatory agents, hormonal manipulation, phytotherapy (quercetin, bee pollen), physiotherapy and chronic pain therapy. A stepwise, multimodal approach can be successful for the majority of patients who present with this difficult condition.
慢性前列腺炎是一种病因不明的疾病，影响大量男性。III 型慢性前列腺炎/慢性骨盆疼痛综合征（CP/CPPS）的最佳治疗方法尚不清楚。近年来，人们在理解、分类和治疗 CP/CPPS 方面进行了大量研究。标准治疗通常包括长期使用抗生素，尽管精心设计的临床试验未能证明其疗效。最近一些具有一定疗效证据的治疗策略包括：α-受体阻滞剂、抗炎药、激素治疗、植物疗法（槲皮素、蜂花粉）、物理疗法和慢性疼痛治疗。对于大多数患有这种棘手疾病的患者，分步、多模式的方法可以取得成功。
