Overview

Andrology is a field of medicine that focuses on men’s health, particularly related to the male reproductive system, urinary system, and hormonal issues. It’s essentially the male counterpart to gynecology, which deals with women’s health.

1. Male reproductive health: This includes conditions like infertility, erectile dysfunction, low testosterone, testicular cancer, and sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
2. Urinary problems: Andrologists can diagnose and treat conditions affecting the male urinary tract, including prostate problems, bladder issues, and urinary incontinence.
3. Hormonal issues: Androgen deficiency, a condition where the body doesn’t produce enough testosterone, can cause a variety of symptoms including low libido, erectile dysfunction, and fatigue. Andrologists can diagnose and treat this condition with hormone replacement therapy.

Why is men’s health important?

Men are just as susceptible to health problems as women, but they often delay seeking medical attention. This can lead to more serious health issues down the line. Regular checkups with an andrologist can help identify and treat problems early on, leading to better overall health and well-being.

Male Infertility

Male infertility affects approximately 40% of couples struggling to conceive. Factors such as low sperm counts (oligospermia) or conditions like varicocele can contribute to infertility. Our specialists focus on identifying the root cause through advanced diagnostic techniques, including surgical sperm retrieval for both obstructive and non-obstructive azoospermia.

Varicocele Treatment

Varicocele, characterized by enlarged veins around the testis, can impair sperm quantity and quality. We offer microscopic varicocelectomy, a precise surgical procedure aimed at improving sperm counts and enhancing fertility outcomes. Our use of intraoperative microvascular Doppler ultrasound ensures optimal surgical results.

Disorders of Erection

Erectile dysfunction is a common concern among men, particularly those over 35. Our clinic provides comprehensive evaluation and treatment options, including oral medications, penile injections, and penile prosthesis implantation. We also address underlying health issues such as diabetes mellitus and heart disease that may contribute to erection problems.

Pain Management

Men experiencing pain in the testis, scrotum, or lower abdomen during urination or ejaculation can find relief through our specialized treatments. From oral medications to surgical correction, we tailor our approach to alleviate discomfort and improve quality of life. Our expertise extends to microsurgical spermatic cord denervation for long-term pain relief.

Hypogonadism and Testosterone Deficiency

Symptoms such as fatigue, decreased libido, and weight gain may indicate hypogonadism or testosterone deficiency. Our team conducts thorough assessments, including blood tests and cardiac evaluations, to determine the appropriate course of treatment. Lifestyle modifications and testosterone therapy are offered based on individual needs.

Premarital and Men’s Health Check

For men preparing for marriage or seeking comprehensive health evaluations, our premarital and men’s health checks provide valuable insights. Through a combination of medical assessments, dietary consultations, and lifestyle recommendations, we empower men to prioritize their health and well-being.
