Urology

Urology is the medical specialty focused on the diagnosis and treatment of conditions related to the urinary tract and male reproductive system. Urologists diagnose and manage a variety of conditions such as urinary tract infections, kidney stones, prostate issues, erectile dysfunction, infertility, and cancers of the urinary and reproductive organs. They employ various diagnostic techniques including imaging studies, urinalysis, and cystoscopy. Treatment options range from medications and minimally invasive procedures to surgical interventions such as prostatectomy or nephrectomy. Urology plays a crucial role in maintaining urinary and reproductive health, improving patients’ quality of life, and addressing complex urological conditions.
