NCT ID NCT07685847

First seen Jul 06, 2026 · Last updated Jul 07, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests whether Prospidol, a rectal suppository containing natural ingredients like hyaluronic acid and Boswellia extract, can reduce pain and urinary symptoms in men with chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome. Forty adult men will use one suppository daily for 10 days each month over three months. Researchers will measure pain scores, urinary function, and quality of life to see if the treatment provides meaningful relief.

Active substance
Prospidol suppository (sodium hyaluronate, Boswellia serrata extract, mallow extract, rice bran oil, Eugenia caryophyllus essential oil)
What this could lead to
If effective, Prospidol could offer a non-drug option to reduce pelvic pain and improve quality of life for men with chronic prostatitis.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with no placebo group, so results may not prove the treatment works better than natural recovery. Side effects are possible.
