Urology is a medical specialty that examines diseases of the urinary systems of both men and women, the male reproductive organs, and sexual dysfunctions in men and women. It covers both the treatment of non-surgical disorders such as urinary tract infections and the surgical procedures related to the urinary system. All disorders involving the urinary and reproductive systems are collectively referred to as urogenital disorders.
As understood from this general definition, urology examines and treats diseases of the following organs (in both men and women):
- Kidneys
- Bladder
- Urinary tract and functional disorders (nocturnal enuresis, urinary incontinence, etc.)
- Male reproductive organs (testicles, penis, prostate)
- Sexual dysfunctions in both men and women
Don’t Let Small Problems Affect Your Quality of Life
Urinary incontinence problems in women may occur during coughing, sneezing, or exercise, as well as in social settings, leading to discomfort and a decline in quality of life. You can find solutions for urinary retention and incontinence problems at our Urology Clinic through special electromagnetic devices or endoscopic methods.
Prostate and Its Treatment
Urinary problems caused by prostate enlargement, which is common among men, usually begin after the age of 50. This condition, known as Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), is observed in half of men over 60 years old. By their 70s or 80s, nearly 80% of men experience urinary tract-related symptoms.
Symptoms of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH):
- Frequent urination, especially at night
- Urgency
- Difficulty starting urination
- Pain or burning sensation during urination
- Feeling that the bladder never empties completely
- Dribbling or urinary leakage
- Weak urine flow
