Andrology Malta

What is Andrology?

Andrology is a branch of medical science that deals with the male reproductive system and urological problems found only in men.
Andrology can be considered as the male version of Gynaecology.

Andrology is a new area of specialization that has not gained as much popularity as Gynaecology has. But in recent years, much attention has been given to this area of medicine due to the increased awareness about men’s fertility and prostate issues.

Most common andrological conditions:

  • Infertility
  • Male contraception
  • Hypogonadism
  • Erectile dysfunction
  • Genitourinary disorders
  • Male senescence
  • Prostate disorders
  • Testicular cancer
  • Benign prostatic hyperplasia and carcinoma
  • Delayed puberty
  • Cryopreservation of semen and testicular tissue
  • Hormone replacement therapy
  • Paternity problems
  • Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STD)

Specialists in andrology may deal with procedures such as vasectomy, prostatectomy and circumcision.

Rate your symptoms and note the duration. It’s always helpful to keep track of this information ahead of time and then discuss with the doctor.
Go through your symptoms with your andrologist and ask any questions you have.
After the andrologist examines you, he will discuss his findings and possible solutions. Depending on your symptoms, treatment such as medication, physical therapy or a surgical procedure may be recommended.
Take notes when your doctor reviews a treatment plan with you. Ask clarifying questions about what they just told you. Remember, if you’re not sure about something, just ask. The Doctor will do his best to make an accurate diagnosis and offer you best treatment decision.
