Frequently Asked Questions About Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome (CPPS)
Q: What is chronic pelvic pain syndrome?
A: Chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CPPS), sometimes called non-bacterial prostatitis, is a condition characterised by persistent pain in the pelvic region, perineum, lower abdomen, or genitals. It is one of the most common urological conditions in men under 50. Symptoms can include pelvic aching, discomfort when sitting, urinary symptoms, and sexual dysfunction. Despite its prevalence, CPPS is frequently misdiagnosed or inadequately treated.
Q: What causes chronic pelvic pain in men?
A: CPPS is typically caused by dysfunction of the pelvic floor muscles — the group of muscles that support the bladder, bowel, and sexual organs. Muscle tension, nerve irritation, and poor neuromuscular coordination can all contribute. Psychological factors such as stress and anxiety are also closely linked. Unlike bacterial prostatitis, there is no infection present in CPPS, which means antibiotics are generally ineffective.
Q: How is CPPS treated at Male Health Clinic?
A: We use a multimodal approach that may include focused shockwave therapy and pelvic floor rehabilitation. Treatment is highly individualised — because CPPS presents differently in every patient, your programme is developed following a detailed clinical assessment. Our aim is to address both the physical drivers and any contributing lifestyle factors.
Q: How long does treatment take?
A: Most patients complete an initial programme of 6 sessions over 6 weeks. Many men notice a meaningful reduction in symptoms during the programme, with continued improvement in the weeks following. Your clinician will work with you to establish a realistic timeline based on your individual presentation.
Q: Can I continue working during treatment?
A: Yes. Our treatments are non-invasive and carry no significant downtime. You can return to work between sessions. Your clinician may give specific guidance on postures or activities to avoid temporarily.
