Does Ciprofloxacin Change The Consistency Of Semen?
A physician prescribed a 28 day supply of ciprofloxacin for my chronic prostatitis. After 3 weeks, I still do not have relief. Also, the consistency of my semen has changed to a thin watery fluid. Is this a sign a other issues or is it a result of the antibiotic?
