I went through a round of what was told to be an infection of Epididymitis, it was not fun.... After 3 rounds of DIFFERENT antibiotics, it did not help at all. After reading so many people online being in the same boat, not being able to get better, I decided to contribute to the cause and write down in one spot all the information and research I have gathered, and show what worked to help me. I want to keep this short and sweet. After rounds of antibiotics, which helped for a day or so... (only after the first round) I decided to try alternate ways. If you have done deep google'ing and research, you may have come across people finding effective treatments from natural & herbal supplements. Many herbal supplements, such as yarrow, golden seal, etc. are no joke, I tried a few of these, and some seemed to work, and with combination with a few other things, it helped and contributed to what I would like to call "bazooka'ing" the stubborn Epididymitis infection. Since apparently, antibiotics have trouble accessing the testicular area, especially the Epididymitis, I wanted to try other substances that had no problem accessing the area. I will show names of products that you should consider ( spending just a bit of $ on on the possibility of helping you rid of the infection is something you should really consider ) this will all cost no more than $50 for all the supplements. All this information is free, not some tricky website to make you buy some e-book at the end for more information.
I am not saying this works for 100% every one, as it depends on your immune system, proper absorption of these supplements in your gut ( for example if you have leaky gut it's more difficult to absorb all of the supplements ingested), it also depends on the severity and type of the infection. If you are under antibiotics the supplements below can only aid and add to the recovery. If you are not on antibiotics, I even more l strongly recommend these supplements below. I do recommended to go see a doctor for a clear evaluation and diagnosis of your condition.
Please do comment on this page, to share your results, this can be a great place for sufferers a like to collaborate and share even more ideas or success stories.
I provided links to the exact product and website I purchased from below after comparing many brands.
Vitamin E - I read on 1 singular post online that someone had success with Vitamin E alone, I researched further; apparently in a study in rats, Vitamin E reversed damage done to the testicles, particularly the epididymitis region. I thought I would give this a strong round, this seemed to play a very strong role in the eradication process. Be sure to use a NATURAL Vitamin E brand. I did a lot of research on the brands I chose. This particular brand of Vitamin E is in in the d-alpha concentration, NOT dl-alpha. dl is a synthetic form of the vitamin is not as bio-available and useful to your body, whereas d-alpha is bio-available. Tip: Almonds have high Vitamin E, consider eating Almonds in **addition** to supplementing. High Quality Vitamin E Product Link Here
Echinacea & Saw Palmetto - a must!!! I believe saw palmetto was the main contributor to helping getting rid of the infection. Although Saw Palmetto is known for prostate health, the prostate is very close to the Epididymitis in theory. Take 1 each the echinacae, and 2-3 a day of Saw Palmetto which is more imporant Saw Palmetto Link Here
Curcumin - Anti inflammatory and powerful antioxidant derived from the spice Turmeric. This is a must when battling any inflammatory condition, or infection. This can reduce pain so you don't take so much medicine pain relievers. This particular brand is of highest absorption ( pepper type extract which is known to help your body absorb the curcumin/turmeric much better ) This is the best Curcumin Supplement Available...
Yarrow Plant - Only tried this toward the end of the curing stage, I don't know if this played a huge role in curing the epididymis, but it very well may have, and you should take it none the less. Product Link Here
Bio-Active Silver Hydrosol **** important **** Check this out, has well over 1k reviews and most of them are about getting rid of many types of infections. I saw some one mentioned this on a forum post that it cured his epididymis, he said all he took was 2 drops of this and 1000mg of curcumin a day but thought the silver was the main factor. I've not tried this one but will buy it. Silver, as a colloid, is reported to kill over 600 disease causing organisms like, bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites. This happens in a matter of minutes upon direct contact. The silver does not attack them directly, but destroys the enzymes they depend on for oxygen. Therefore resistant strains should not be able to develop and the body does not develop a tolerance. Product Link Here
Apple Cider Vinegar - This is some powerful stuff, I don't know much about the science behind this natural drink, but it seemed to play a strong role as well. This stuff is very sour, so take a bout 2 shots of it a day! I bought mine at trader joes. Product Link Here
*** important *** Frequent daily massage to the affected area, not just testes or Epididymitis, also surrounding area from testes to your sphincter area, deep but not hard massage to increase blood flow, this will increase blood flow and allow these supplements to assist you easier.
Other tips from what i've found online:
• Stop smoking marijuana for the time being - i've seen complaints on forums and reddit that smoking marijuana exacerbates the pain
• Coffee aggravates the condition alarmingly, probably because too acidic
• Limit alcohol use
• Apply cold -- Hop in a very cold bath, start adding ice in the water as well ( works wonders )
If you do start to feel relief, do not stop taking the supplements.
