The area of medicine known as urology is dedicated to the diagnosis and management of conditions affecting the male reproductive system and urinary tract. Conditions affecting the kidneys, bladder, ureters, urethra, and male reproductive organs, such as the prostate, testes, and penis, are the specialty of urologists.
Male infertility, prostate problems, kidney stones, urinary tract infections (UTIs), and bladder dysfunction are common urological conditions. More severe illnesses like prostate, kidney, and bladder cancer are also treated by urologists. Subspecialties within the field include urologic oncology, female urology, and pediatric urology.
Laser therapy, robotic surgery, and laparoscopic procedures are examples of minimally invasive treatments made possible by advancements in urology that have improved patient outcomes and recovery times. Urological health management and the avoidance of complications depend heavily on routine examinations and early diagnosis.
