For the past few weeks I have noticed as I
am laying or sitting down relaxing I feel
this weird pulsating feeling near my
perineum. It's not at the surface of the
skin but if I press near that area I can
kind of feel it. It's not painful just
feels kind of like a contraction/pulsating
feeling. It does it for a few seconds and
then stops for a while. I believe it could
be my prostate? What can this be? It's
been worrying me because it hasn't gone
away.

How constant is it? I get this from time
to time, but quite rarely, it's just a
muscle spasm unless I'm not getting what
you're talking about. If it's happen
regularly and for extended time periods,
however, you may want to get checked.

How old are you? It could just be your
prostate just 'exercising'. I remember
that happening to me when I was younger.
It happened for small amounts of time,
though and it wasn't constant. I would say
if it continues, to see someone. You don't
want to mess around with anything
irregular when it comes to your prostate.

im 23 years old and ive had the same
feeling happening for the past week. seems
to happen each day. seems to last for
just a few seconds then stops. it happens
a few times thru out the day.
over the years i remember getting that
same feeling but it would happen rarely.
should i be concerned? or is this
completely normal?
on a side note, ive had a case of
epididymitis from lifting heavy objects,
im not at all athletic. ive been taking 3
weeks of Doxycycl and have another week to
go on it.
not sure if maybe taking this antibiotic
could be causing the pulsating feeling or
not.
about 6 days ago, during ejaculation, it
felt like if the semen or sperm was having
trouble making its way out. seemed like a
bit of a delay before it finally came out.
where as in the past, it just shoots right
out.
i believe that its from the epididymitis ,
i hope that doesnt cause a problem or is
causing this pulsating feeling.
any info would be greatly appreciated.

I would wait 'til you're done your
medication. Your epididymis is connected
to your prostate via your vas deferens...
Other than that, I honestly can't tell
you. If it persists, see a doctor.

so it could just be a reaction to the
medication?
cause last month was when i went to see
the doctor. and he gave me 10 days of
Doxycycl, but i still had a dull ache in
my left testicle. so i was off the meds
for about 4 or 5 days. when i went to get
examined again. he went ahead and gave me
4 weeks worth of the meds. taking 2 a day
for 2 weeks and then 1 a day for 2 weeks.
that day thats when i toko notice the
pulsating feeling while i was laying in
bed patiently waiting for the antibiotics
to be ready. the feeling was not as
frequent as now, but it would happen thru
out the day. while now its quite ofte. an
hour is about the longest ive gone without
getting that feeling. not sure what would
be considered abnormal. cause its not like
it happens constantly without stopping.
its just sort of random.
it doesnt hurt any , no discomfort in
either testicle. so i was worried that it
was the infection making its way
elsewhere, or a side effect to the
medication.
i figure ill see the doctor on Tuesday.
for a follow up to make sure the
medication has cleared the epididymitis
and just so i wont be all worried. seeing
as how my last day of the antibiotic will
be on Christmas Day. and im sure he will
be on vacation and such.
i just wanted to get an idea if this was
any cause for concern. or if i should see
the doctor ASAP.

I have no idea if it's a reaction to the
meds. Tell your doctor about it on
tuesday.
