FAQ
How to prepare for a visit to a urologist?
No special preparation is required – standard hygiene procedures before the visit are enough. It is advisable to abstain from sexual intercourse 24 hours before the visit. If you plan to take a urine sample, collect it in a sterile container in the morning and deliver it to the clinic within 1-2 hours. If you already have the results of previous examinations (ultrasound, tests, spermogram), be sure to bring them with you: this will help the doctor to draw up a more complete picture.
What symptoms are a reason to urgently visit a urologist?
Contact your urologist immediately if you notice blood in your urine, acute pain in the lumbar region or groin, complete urinary retention, or a fever of more than 38°C combined with pain when urinating. These symptoms may indicate renal colic, acute pyelonephritis, or a urinary tract infection that requires urgent treatment. Regular symptoms – frequent urge, weak urine stream, discomfort in the perineal area – are a reason to make a scheduled appointment.
Does the urologist treat women?
Thus, a urologist deals with diseases of the urinary system in both men and women. Women with cystitis, urethritis, pyelonephritis, urinary incontinence, urolithiasis, and overactive bladder visit a urologist. Gynecological diseases that require a separate consultation, if necessary, the urologist distinguishes between a gynecologist – both specialists are available at the IVMED clinic.
How often do men need to undergo a preventive examination by a urologist?
Men under 40 without complaints are recommended to visit a urologist every 2 years. After 40 years – annually, as the risk of prostate adenoma and oncological changes increases. After 50, it is mandatory to have a PSA test annually to screen for prostate cancer. If there are complaints or chronic diseases, the frequency is determined individually by the doctor.
How long does a urologist consultation take and what does it include?
A consultation with an urologist at the IVMED clinic takes 30-40 minutes. During this time, the doctor takes anamnesis, conducts a physical examination, if necessary, a finger rectal examination of the prostate gland, prescribes laboratory diagnostics (general urine analysis, PSA test, culture, spermogram) and instrumental examinations (ultrasound of the kidneys, bladder, prostate). Based on the results, you receive a diagnosis and a detailed treatment plan.
