Abstrakt: The pH of expressed prostatic secretion was measured in men with and without inflammatory prostatic disease. Whereas the pH of expressed prostatic secretion was acid with a mean of 6.7 in men without inflammatory prostatic disease, it reached a mean of 8.1 in those with chronic bacterial prostatitis. Return of expressed prostatic secretion to acid values after cure of the disease occurred after at least 2 years.
