Who is a Urologist?
Urologists treat and diagnose urinary tract diseases in men and women. They also diagnose and treat any diseases involving the male reproductive tract, and in some cases, they can perform surgery. For example, they can remove cancer or open up blockages in the urinary tract. The urinary tract is the system that produces, stores, and discharges urine from the body. The urologist can treat any part of the system. This includes:
- The kidney is an organ that filters waste from the blood to produce the ureter.
- The ureter is the tube through which urine flows from the kidney to the bladder.
- A tube which is the urethra through which urine flows.
- The route of urine from the bladder to the outside of the body is the adrenal glands, which are glands on top of each kidney that release hormones.
Urologists also treat all parts of the male genital system. The system includes the subsequent parts,
- The penis which transports the sperm out of the body and releases urine.
- The prostate, which is the gland under the bladder, adds fluid to the sperm to produce the seminal vesicles.
- These are the two organs that are oval in the scrotum which produce the hormone testosterone and produce sperm.
