Only 40% of prostate cancer patients' prostates have traces of virus. They should do a study on normal prostates and see how many of them show traces of viral DNA; my guess is about the same percentage.
Good News! The great ProstaQ is BACK at last! You must try it.

Interesting. Consider that cervical cancer is linked to HPV, one may think that virii has something to do with certian cancers.

Interesting indeed. I wonder what this virus is? Could it be implicated in CPPS, in myoneuropathy? Worth keeping an eye on.

PS. 40% is high!

Unlikely in the extreme.

How can viruses (or bacteria for that matter) explain the neuromuscular nature and intermittency of CPPS. At times, I have no symptoms whatsoever at all. Also the fact that Ativan works proves the muscular element. In case of cancer, they may have a role. In any case, there are lots of websites promoting the links between prostatitis, cancer & external agents to push their products.

Symptoms- pain at tip and base of penis, urge to urinate (can hold off for hrs), dribbling at end of urination
