Selenium boosts antioxidant status
[The possibility of correcting oxidative stress in patients with inflammatory type of chronic abacterial prostatitis (chronic pelvic pain syndrome category IIIa)].
Moderate relevance to chronic pain
We sought to understand how a mineral-vitamin complex, specifically Selzinc-plus, may help treat chronic abacterial prostatitis, a condition often linked with pelvic pain. In a study involving 47 men, we divided them into two groups: one received standard therapy, and the other received additional Selzinc-plus for two months.
While standard therapy showed effects, the antioxidant treatment significantly enhanced these benefits on symptoms. Notably, though the overall antioxidant system improved, no significant changes were observed in leukocyte counts. Our findings suggest that this antioxidant approach may offer added relief for those suffering from pelvic pain.

Dietary supplements alleviate pelvic pain
Effects of a dietary supplement on chronic pelvic pain syndrome (Category IIIA), leucocytospermia and semen parameters.
Moderate relevance for pelvic pain
We focused on the effects of a dietary supplement combining several natural ingredients, including selenium, on chronic pelvic pain in men with Category IIIA prostatitis.
Patients taking this supplement showed significant reductions in inflammation and pain, as evidenced by lower white blood cell counts in seminal fluid and improved pain scores.
These findings suggest that selenium, along with other nutrients, may play a beneficial role in alleviating pelvic pain associated with chronic prostatitis.

Selenium enhances pelvic pain treatment
Treatment of chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome category IIIA with Serenoa repens plus selenium and lycopene (Profluss) versus S. repens alone: an Italian randomized multicenter-controlled study.
High relevance for treatment modalities
We evaluated the effects of a treatment combining Serenoa repens with selenium and lycopene, known as Profluss, against Serenoa repens alone for chronic pelvic pain in 102 men. After an 8-week period, both groups experienced symptom improvements. However, the Profluss group showed a significantly greater reduction in pelvic pain scores and additional benefits in other measures, suggesting that selenium can enhance treatment effectiveness for this condition.
While both treatments offered relief, Profluss was particularly beneficial. This finding indicates that adding selenium to standard therapy might be advantageous in managing pelvic pain.

Pain relief achieved
I wanted to improve my hair, influenced by the praise surrounding its benefits. However, shortly after I began taking it, I began to experience pain beneath my left rib. I suspected this was due to my increased supplement intake and noticed the discomfort arose after taking selenium. Regrettably, my hair started to fall out. To clarify, I had a lab test for selenium, which indicated an overdose, even though I had taken just one per day for a fortnight. After I ceased the selenium, the pain disappeared. It's advisable to conduct tests before starting any supplements.

Hair loss concern
I purchased this product after reading rave reviews regarding its effects on hair. Unfortunately, upon commencing intake, I began to experience pain under my left rib. I became cautious, considering I was also on other supplements, but it seemed the discomfort arose after consuming selenium. My hair also started to thin. To confirm, I ordered a laboratory test that revealed a selenium overdose in my body, despite taking only one pill daily for a couple of weeks. Once I discontinued it, the pain subsided. It's important to get tested before starting any new supplements.

Multimodal therapy improves pelvic pain
Multimodal therapy for category III chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome in UPOINTS phenotyped patients.
High relevance to chronic pelvic pain
We examined the potential of a multimodal therapy approach for treating chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS) using the UPOINTS phenotyping system. Involving 914 patients, the study combined α-blockers, supplements like selenium, and antibacterial agents among others.
After a six-month course, we noted significant improvements in symptoms, with 77.5% of patients achieving a meaningful reduction in their pain scores. Notably, patients with the inflammatory subtype showed marked symptom relief compared to the non-inflammatory group. This suggests a tailored approach could effectively address the complexities of CP/CPPS.
