An antibiotic trial is often made by doctors to see if patients give any response to antibiotics because there may be some hidden prostatic infections. The antibiotic treatment is controversial. Doctors prescribe antibiotics because there is a suspicion of occult infection. Some patients may respond clinically but some may not. The abuse of antibiotics is harmful to health.
