Summary

Prevalence estimates show that prostatitis is one of the most common urological conditions and that symptoms range considerably among men of various socioeconomic status, race, and age. For men under 50 years, prostatitis is the most common urologic outpatient diagnosis. Chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome has high prevalence estimates internationally ( 16% North America, 14% Asian \& Europeans). Men suffering from Chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome report significant impairment in their quality of life which is also associated with greater health care expenditures.
