Urology and Andrology
Urology is a specialized field of medicine that focuses on the urinary organs, including the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra. Andrology, a sub-specialty within urology, centers on male-specific health issues, particularly those concerning reproductive organs and hormonal health.
Conditions in these areas can manifest in various ways, often subtly. Typical symptoms include frequent urination, pain or burning during urination, blood in the urine, incontinence, or prostate-related discomfort. Men may also experience issues like erectile dysfunction, decreased libido, or hormonal imbalances, which can indicate a urological or andrological issue. These symptoms can be bothersome and, if chronic, may significantly impact quality of life. They may also be signs of more serious health conditions, making it important to consult a urologist or andrologist early on.
