Consultation of an andrologist

Andrologist is a specialist in diseases of the male genitourinary system. Consultation of an adrologist is necessary for sexual disorders and infertility – about 40% of cases of infertility in couples are caused by the male factor.

Do not hesitate to consult the andrologist, even if it is difficult for you psychologically. SILK medical specialists will delicately help you to solve your problem with respect to confidentiality. 

What diseases does an andrologist treat?

• Adenoma (benign hyperplasia) of the prostate
• Androgen deficiency – age-related decrease in testosterone production
• Varicocele
• Erectile dysfunction
• Phimosis and paraphimosis

It is important to identify diseases as early as possible so they can be treated effectively. Otherwise, the disease may affect not only the ability of having children, but also health in general.

How is the consultation going

The appointment begins with a conversation – сollection of anamnesis. The andrologist will ask about symptoms, previous illnesses and treatment. All the results of previous examinations and treatment should be brought to the appointment. The doctor will also ask questions about the intimate life of a man. It is important to be prepared for such questions: answers will help the doctor to put the right diagnosis and prescribe treatment. After collecting the anamnesis, the andrologist conducts an examination, if necessary – with an ultrasound and a smear test. 

According to the results, an andrologist can establish a diagnosis and prescribe a treatment, as well as send a man for additional tests and examinations.
