Hello!
I was wondering if anyone in this community has personally experienced this or know anything about it? The most information that I could find was on this site.
Also, even though I'm not a doctor and I'm not sure if I even have female prostatitis, I'm afraid that my doctor will misdiagnose me. Would it be completely rude and out of my place to suggest that I might have this? I'm sorry for the length and if I wasn't expressing myself clearly. Thank you for reading!

The reason why I think I might have this is because I've had symptoms similar to that of a UTI -- the urgency to urinate, cloudiness of urine, and a persistent burning sensation when I do urinate. However, I went to the doctor's and my urine did not test positive for a UTI, although my doctor said that there were trace amounts of blood. My doctor, just as a precaution, prescribed an antibiotic (sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim) and told me to take them if my problems persist.
I decided not to take the antibiotics and to wait it out until I felt as though I was getting worse. The next night, I was awoken by a sharp pain in my lower abdomen and the need to pee. While I was peeing, it was more painful than before but my urine was a clear/pale yellow color. Even after urinating, I still felt like I had to pee. And there was a new sensation in addition to my other pain. I felt oddly aroused? I had the same feeling that I got when I was about to ejaculate. My vagina was really sore but I attributed it to having slightly rough sex a few days earlier. I decided to try pressing the g-spot area that I would press in order to ejaculate and once I did, without much effort I began ejaculating. However, unlike my normal clear, watery ejaculate, this was orange/dark yellow in color and I think it had blood in it?
It's two days later and both my urine and ejaculate are pale yellow/clear. My vagina is still extremely sensitive and the g-spot area is swollen. Today, I felt aroused all day because my vagina has been extra sensitive, so sensitive that it's uncomfortable for me to sit at times. It feels like my g-spot is getting really full and it's painful if I don't ejaculate to release the fluid.
I've been taking my antibiotics for the supposed UTI in hopes that it'll clear up whatever I might really have but I'm on my last day's worth of antibiotics and I still feel discomfort I've been reading sites and a lot of the sites have stated that the cause of this is unknown therefore doctors are unsure how to treat it. I figured I'd make a doctor's appointment later today, but I just wanted to know more about this before I start freaking out anymore than I already am.

You can buy it online, or, if you have a good health food store nearby, they should carry it. It's AMAZING for cystitis and cystitis symptoms. Are you stressed out right now? That typically causes onsets of cystitis.
GOOD LUCK!
