Per prostatite si intende qualsiasi forma di infiammazione della ghiandola prostatica. Poiché le donne sono sprovviste di tale ghiandola si tratta di una sindrome che colpisce esclusivamente il sesso maschile. Le donne possiedono delle microscopiche ghiandole periuretrali, definite ghiandole di Skene, site nell'area prevaginale in prossimità dell'uretra, ghiandole che sono considerate l'omologo della prostata e possono causare una sintomatologia simile. La prostatite ha un'incidenza che va dal 7% al 12% a seconda del territorio e delle statistiche.
