Urology & Andrology – Deccan Hospitals

Urology is a medical specialty that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and management of conditions affecting the urinary tract and the male reproductive system. Urologists are doctors who have completed additional training in this specialty.

The urinary tract includes the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra, which are the organs and tubes that are responsible for producing, storing, and eliminating urine from the body. The male reproductive system includes the testes, prostate gland, and other organs that are involved in the production of sperm and the regulation of male reproductive function.

Urologists may treat a wide range of conditions, including urinary tract infections, kidney stones, incontinence, prostate cancer, and male infertility. They may use a variety of treatments, including medication, minimally invasive procedures, and surgery, to manage these conditions.

Urologists may also work with patients to develop long-term treatment and management plans to prevent or reduce the risk of recurrent problems. They may work closely with other healthcare professionals, such as primary care doctors and oncologists, to provide comprehensive care to patients.

Anyone with a condition affecting the urinary tract or the male reproductive system may be a urology patient. Some common conditions that may require treatment by a urologist include:

Urinary tract infections: A urinary tract infection (UTI) is an infection that affects any part of the urinary tract, including the kidneys, ureters, bladder, or urethra. UTIs are more common in women than in men and can cause symptoms such as pain or burning during urination, frequent urination, and abdominal pain.
Kidney stones: Kidney stones are hard masses that form in the kidneys and can cause pain, nausea, and difficulty urinating. Urologists may use medication or surgery to treat kidney stones.
Incontinence: Incontinence is the inability to control urination, which can be caused by a variety of conditions, including bladder weakness, nerve damage, and prostate problems. Urologists may use medication, pelvic floor muscle exercises, or surgery to treat incontinence.
Prostate cancer: The prostate gland is a small, walnut-sized gland in the male reproductive system that surrounds the urethra. Prostate cancer is a common type of cancer in men, and urologists may use a variety of treatments, including surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy, to manage it.
Male infertility: Male infertility is the inability to father a child and can be caused by a variety of factors, including problems with sperm production, blockages in the reproductive system, and other conditions. Urologists may use medication or surgery to treat male infertility.
