Here are some of the most common urologic disorders that can affect you:
∙Incontinence
Urinary incontinence is a condition in which you will have no control over your bladder. Its severity ranges from
occasional leaking to a sudden, strong urge to urinate that you don’t get to the toilet in time. This condition is
related to the prostate gland and may be due to prostatitis and enlarged prostate.
∙Urinary Tract Infections
A urinary tract infection is an infection in your urinary system, which involves the kidney, bladder, and urethra.
When bacteria get into your urinary system it causes infection and inflammation thus urinary tract infection
(UTI).
∙Overactive Bladder
An overactive bladder is a condition that causes frequent and sudden urge to urinate, especially during the
night. People with this condition often leak urine immediately when they feel the urge to pass urine.
∙Bladder Stones
Bladder stones are the hardened mineral deposits that form in the bladder. Sometimes they don’t cause any
symptoms and pass out of the body on their own, but sometimes they need medical procedures to be
removed.
∙Kidney Stones
Kidney stones are mineral deposits that become concentrated enough in the urine to form crystals in the
kidney and causes severe pain when they pass in the urinary tract and get stuck.
∙Enlarged Prostate
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) happens when your prostate and its surrounding tissue swell. This
condition is also called prostate enlargement, which usually occurs as men get older. This is not cancer and
does not increase your risk of having prostate cancer.
∙Erectile Dysfunction
Erectile dysfunction, commonly referred to as ED, is your inability to maintain an erection suitable for sexual
intercourse. According to studies, about 1 out of 10 males suffer from ED at some point during their lifetime.
∙Male Infertility
Fertility refers to your ability to reproduce without medical assistance. Male infertility usually depends on the
quality of your sperm cells and your ability to make your wife or partner pregnant. During sexual intercourse,
your body makes tiny cells called sperm that are ejaculated into your wife or partner’s body. The testicles are the
ones that make and store your sperm.
It is very important that you pay attention to your urological health. As much as you can, try not to miss any of your
regular and routine check-ups. And always report any symptoms that you develop in order to treat your condition
