HelloThanks for query. Based on the symptoms and semen culture report suggesting enterrococcus infection it is mostly due to infection of Prostate (Prostatitis). Prostatitis takes long time to get cured and one has to take appropriate antibiotics for 4-6 weeks to eradicate the infection completely. Repeat Semen culture again and continue taking antibiotics for 4 weeks more along with anti-inflammatory Chat Doctor.
