It is usually due to infection, most commonly from a urine infection or a sexually transmitted infection. A course of antibiotic medicine will usually clear the infection. Full recovery is usual. • Causes of epididymitis • Epididymitis can be caused by a sexually transmitted infection (STI), such as chlamydia or gonorrhoea. This is more likely in younger men under 35 years old. • It can also be caused by a urinary tract infection (UTI), usually in older men, but UTIs are less common in men. If its due to a UTI then you must have a review by a urologist. • A UTI is more likely if you have: • an enlarged prostate gland • a urinary catheter • recently had surgery to the groin, prostate gland or bladder • Sometimes a cause cannot be found. • You can also get treatment for epididymitis at a sexual health clinic. • They are used to diagnosing, investigating and treating EO and can also provide you with the correct antibiotics. In countries where sexual health is not a medical specialty then family doctors or urologists with an interest in sexual health are a good alternative. • Remember it can take months to fully recover. • Have regular sexual health checks and have good sexual health • Take care
