Urology is a medical specialty that focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of disorders related to the urinary system in both men and women, as well as the male reproductive system. This includes the kidneys, ureters, bladder, urethra, and male organs such as the prostate, testes, and penis. Urologists manage a wide range of conditions, including urinary tract infections (UTIs), kidney stones, incontinence, enlarged prostate (BPH), male infertility, and cancers of the urinary tract and male reproductive organs. They use both medical and surgical approaches, often employing minimally invasive techniques like laparoscopy and endoscopy. Urology plays a vital role in maintaining urinary health and addressing issues that can significantly impact quality of life.
