Male urinary tract infections (MUTI) are often less recognised compared to those in women. French clinical guidelines practices recommend the use of antibiotics called fluoroquinolones, which are highly effective in treating MUTIs. However, these antibiotics can lead to rare but serious side effects, such as tendonitis or heart rhythm disturbances. Additionally, fluoroquinolones can contribute to the development of bacterial resistance, making their use inadvisable within six months of treatment. In response to these concerns, we aim to explore a well-established alternative, fosfomycin trometamol (known by the brand name MONURIL®). This antibiotic has a strong track record in treating UTIs in women, with well-documented benefits and minimal associated risks. The primary goal of this study is to assess the effectiveness of fosfomycin trometamol in treating urinary tract infections in men, as well as to evaluate any potential treatment failures.

Evaluate the effect of TECAR therapy on pain, voiding, erectile function, sleep quality and quality of life in men with chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome.

Male Accessory Glands Inflammations (MAGI) include inflammatory diseases involving seminal vescicles and the prostate. Patients suffering from them present an impaired fertility because of seminal duct obstruction and alterations of the rheologic and functional parameters of semen, induced by direct microbiological action as well as inflammatory and oxidative damage. Inflammation in seminal plasma can be detected and measured by dosing of inflammatory molecules such as SuPAR and ST2. Treatment of MAGIs include specific antibiotic therapy in addition to use of anti-inflammatory nutraceutics. Deprox HP is a nutraceutic containing GraminexTM, a compound made of pollen extracts of rye, mais and timothy. To investigate its efficacy, we evalued seminal parameters, inflammatory and oxidative molecules in seminal plasma and clinical and ultrasonographic features of male accessory glands before and after 3 months of treatment in 20 patients taking Deprox HP and 20 patients undergoing treatment with palmitoilethanolammide, bromelin and horse chestnut extract.
