Urologists are doctors who are specialized in the kidney, urinary bladder, adrenal glands, urethra, and male reproductive organs, and male fertility in the genitourinary tract. Urologists diagnose and treat both men and women with urinary tract diseases.

Nephrologists primarily treat diseases such as diabetes or kidney failure that affect the kidney and its capacity to function. Urologists treat urinary tract disorders such as kidney stones and congestion, including those that may be caused by the kidneys.

Some health issues in men with which Urologists treat are:

• Benign (non-cancerous) lesions
• Benign prostate conditions such as prostatitis and enlarged prostate (benign prostatic hyperplasia, or BPH)
• Erectile dysfunction
• Peyronie's disease (penile curvature)

The prolapse of the pelvic organ is when 1 or more of the organs in the pelvis fall down and bulge into the vagina from their usual location. It may be the uterus, the colon, the bladder, or the top of the vagina.

A urological oncologist is a clinician that specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of cancers of the urinary tract in both men and women, as well as tumors of the male reproductive organs. These organs include the intestine, liver, prostate, penis, and testicles.

Share your medical history and thorough explanations of your symptoms and any medicines that you might be taking. When symptoms arise, what makes it worse or your family’s medical history, the urologist would probably want to know. Examine yourself mentally.

In both men and women, urologists also handle reproductive system issues. Female urology is a subspecialty in urology that focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of women who are commonly affected by urological conditions. The distinctive anatomy of the female urinary tract and reproductive system is attributed to these factors.

Allopurinol (Zyloprim, Aloprim) can be administered by your doctor to lower your blood and urine levels of uric acid and medication to keep your urine alkaline. Allopurinol and an alkalizing agent can dissolve the uric acid stones in some instances.

The key categories of doctors treating prostate cancer include urologist: surgeons treating urinary system and male reproductive system (including prostate) diseases Radiation oncologist: radiation therapy specialist treating cancer.

Laparoscopic urologic surgery is a procedure in which a doctor corrects urological problems without giving the patient significant pain. A laparoscope with an inbuilt camera and many long and thin surgical instruments are used in this minimally invasive surgery.

An andrological diagnosis entails gathering the patient's and couple's medical histories, as well as a physical examination that includes a genital ultrasound, stereogram, and hormonal analyses. A testicular biopsy and genetic testing may be conducted if necessary.
