Why I should visit an Urologist?

Dr. Carlos Gamiño Sabagh

Currently, we aren't conscious about how important it is for men to have regular check-ups; we tend to not deal with issues until they appear. This is why Urology is a primary specialty that helps to detect any ailments before they are too advanced and become dangerous.
 

Socially there are many taboos when seeking the help of a urologist, and many people do not seek advice until it is too late. Not seeking help on time has negative repercussions on the patient's quality of life.
 

It is essential to consider having a urologic revision periodically to avoid some diseases from progressing. Having regular check-ups is crucial to both men and women to keep the normal functioning of the urinary tract and healthy sexual life.
 

Here at Costamed Medical Group, we offer an excellent service with professional staff to tend to your problems in a private manner with a group of experts that will help you remain healthy.
 

Urologic revision in men has four essential stages:
 

• Right after birth to check the anatomy and the proper function of the urinary and genital system.
• Before puberty, 12 years of age, in hormonal changes begin.
• At 18 years of age, to check the proper maturity of the whole system, with education about auto exploration and every taboo that might be present at the moment.
• At 35 years of age, to monitor the prostatic growth stage and avoid prostate cancer, let's remember that this is the most common tumor among men.
   

In the case of women, they usually attend their gynecologic revision and only seek this, especially to check both urinary tract and genital infections.
 

It is important to emphasize that the urologist is the expert in checking urinary tract problems such as leaking, incontinency, or any other genital tract problems.
 

Remember never to seek help online because this can become confusing and scary. Always seek professional medical attention and remember Costamed is always near you.
