What's the ideal age for a man to visit a Urologist?

As we grow up, quality of life and health issues become more important and relevant in our lives. After 40 years of age, there are more possibilities of suffering from difficulties with urine or other things related to aging.

 

You probably do not need to see a Urologist when you are a teenager or a young man.

Perhaps you need a Urologist at a certain age, but it may only be a visit.

 

The most common age is over 40. Ideally, you should already visit a Primary Care Provider, and he or she can help you with your cholesterol, blood pressure, blood sugar, and weight or overweight.

 

Over 40, maybe you will start with some common issues like Erectile Dysfunction or Prostate Disease. That's the ideal moment to see a Urologist.

 

When men turn 40, they are worried about their hair or their belly, but these are not problems. Their prostate, urinary, and sexual health maybe are.



How can a Urologist help you?

Prostate and sexual health will play a significant role in this. Urologists are specialists in handling these issues and could help you perfectly.

 

A Urologist will guide you to know what to expect at each stage and age regarding the urinary system and the male genital system; the Doctor will be able to recommend useful changes in your lifestyle, what are just regular check-up times, and when and how to treat a problem or disease.

 

Some of the common issues when the men are in the late 40s are:

 

Enlarged prostate

Maybe you have difficulty urinating due to enlarged prostate; don't worry, is only the age. 

But too many tours to the bathroom — even at night — and sometimes even with pain, that's a problem.

 

An Enlarged Prostate can be treated with pills when you go to the Doctor at an early stage.

 

Erectile Dysfunction

Erectile Dysfunction is common for guys over 40 and early 50s. 

The cause isn't always physical, but a Urologist could help a lot.

Your Urologist can check your testosterone and prescribe medications to improve blood flow to the penis.



Vasectomy

 

Vasectomy is a simple surgical procedure as part of male birth control. It consists of sectioning, cutting, or tying the male's vas deferens responsible for transporting sperm from the testicles. Vasectomy is also known as "male sterilization" and has a very high rate of effectiveness in preventing pregnancy, almost 100%.

 

If you've already had a family and are not interested in augmenting it, or don't want one and are considering a Vasectomy as the right method for you, rest assured that it is a safe, fast outpatient procedure.



Visit a Urologist if you have any of the following symptoms: 

 

  • Difficulty in urinating

  • Bleeding in the urine

  • Erection problems

  • Concern about size

 

Remember periodic visits to your Urologist can keep you healthy. And of course, Cancer Prostate Screenings could save your life.

 

It is important that you do your annual checkup. BlueNetHospitals offers a variety of annual check-up packages that include everything from necessary lab tests and X-rays to a variety of medical specialist tests and more comprehensive and specific CT scans.
