6:13 AM - Urologist Los Angeles- Havenâ??t gotten your prostate checked lately?

There's no better time to get your prostate checked than during Prostate Cancer Awareness Month!
 
Did you know that September is Prostate Cancer Awareness Month? As prostate cancer continues to claim the lives of over 25,000 American males each year- making it the leading cancer-related cause of death for American males- it is incredibly crucial to get prostates checked regularly by a Urologist in Los Angeles because if the earlier prostate cancer is detected, the better the chance that the patient will be cured. In fact, the president of the Large Urology Group Practice Association has stated that if caught early enough, prostate cancer is almost always curable, with a 10-year survival rate at 99%.
 
According to recent statistics, one in six American men will get prostate cancer at some point in their lives. This rate is even higher among African-American males and those with a familial history of prostate cancer. And the older a man gets, the higher his chances of developing prostate cancer.
 
Prostate cancer usually presents no signs of symptoms until it is too late, meaning that getting your prostate checked with a screening is the only way to ensure that any prostate cancer that forms is detected early, when it is very, very treatable.
 
Prostate cancer can be effectively treated a couple of different ways: surgically and via radiation therapy.
 
Prostate cancer can be surgically cured with the removal of the prostate, using a method known as prostatectomy. Prostatectomy is most often used to treat prostate cancers that are still in its early stages or prostate cancers that have not responded to radiation therapy. Depending on the severity of the prostate cancer, the testicles may also have to be removed.
 
Radiation therapy is the other method that is used to cure prostate cancer. During radiation therapy, ionizing radiation is used to damage cells within the body. By damaging cells, apoptosis, or cell death, is induced. However, for normal, non-cancer cells, any damage caused by the radiation therapy should be able to be repaired, and not induce apoptosis. Radiation therapy can be used at all stages of prostate cancer.
 
Although prostate cancer can be cured, the methods that are necessary to effectively kill the cancer has the high potential to cause an unfortunate side effect: Erectile Dysfunction. This is because prostatectomy involves surgery to areas very close to nerves related to sexual function and radiation therapy inherently involves causing intentional damage to cells around the prostate, including cells related to sexual function.
 
Even though erectile dysfunction is not favorable, there is good news: with time and treatment, sexual health and function should return. There are prescription medications, surgical implants, medical injections, and external devices available to help with the treatment of erectile dysfunction caused by treatments for prostate cancer.

2:59 AM - Vaginal Rejuvenation can be Extremely Life-Changing

 

Factors such as pregnancy, aging, and personal injury can cause permanent stretching of the vagina canal; causing some dissatisfaction in the bedroom.   It has been said that performing Kegel exercises can help tightening and strengthen the vagina overtime, but even thatcan only do so much.   For guaranteed and dramatic results, women have the option of getting a Vaginoplasty in Los Angeles .   This cosmetic surgery focuses on targeting the hymenotomy, or the actually opening of the hymen.   This procedure removes the excess skin lining and tightens the surrounding muscles and tissues so that there will be a renewed and noticeable tightness.   Most women opt to combine vaginoplasty with labiaplasty (refining of the outer and inner labia) for an added lift and rejuvenation to their body part.   It is a surgery that does not require an extended recovery time, and patients can return to normal sexual activities after seven days.

But an issue that affects both males and females is urinary tract infection.   Also know as, UTI, this infection can occur in both sexes at any age and is caused by microbe bacteria that enters the urinary tract and are not flushed out properly.   This can cause mild to severe pain in the pelvic or lower back, fever, vomiting, and occasionally bloody urine.   This condition is actually more common in women than in men because their urethra is much shorter, making it easier for bacteria to travel up the urinary tract.    In fact, sexual intercourse is the cause of 75-90% of UTI in women because the existing bacteria around the vagina area gets pushed up and massaged into the urethra.   

Another cause of this infection results from waiting too long to urinate, where the bladder muscle is forced out stretch out beyond its capacity and begin to weaken.   Once the bladder is emptied however, there is still a small amount of urine left that will lead to an infection.   To cure a UTI, an Urologist in Los Angeles will take a urine sample and collect the number the bacteria and white blood cells to observe under a microscope.   If the diagnosis is correct, your urologist will prescribe to you some antibiotics to kill the bacteria, and this should not be discontinued until the entire treatment is complete.   Your urologist will even advise out on some simple ways to avoid another UTI in the future, such as wiping front to back after the a bowel movement, urinating right after intercourse, and drinking plenty of fluids to flush the bacteria out.

5:50 AM - Labiaplasty Los Angeles-Feeling prudish about your privates? Start feeling proud!

There are two types of plastic surgery: reconstructive and cosmetic. Reconstructive plastic surgery is the genre of plastic surgery employed to improve or restore function or appearance due deformities caused by genetic or birth defects, developed medical conditions, injuries, or medical conditions. Cosmetic plastic surgery, on the other hand is the kind of plastic surgery that has come to be rather common and acceptable in today's society- surgical and nonsurgical procedures designed to bring about a more aesthetically-pleasing look to virtually any part of the body.

 

Recently, reconstructive and cosmetic plastic surgery to the gential regions of both genders has been garnering attention and popularity. Reconstructive plastic surgery to genital regions usually entail the correction of some abnormality that is causing the patient to experience sexual hardship or hardship simply living their daily lives, or quite possibly, both.

 

And example of a physical genital abnormality that could tremendously better the life of a female patient, both sexually and personally, is the labiaplasty. For women who have abnormally long or large outer or inner labias can experience sexual frustration- their inner labias might constantly get pulled in towards the vagina during sex, causing discomfort, and possibly pain- and/or general frustration during the course of a normal day- large or long labias tend to rub against undergarments more frequently and harshly than normal-sized labias, causing discomfort and pain, and potentially causing infections to develop.

 

The labiaplasty in Los Angeles is a reconstructive cosmetic procedure of either the inner labia or the outer labia, or both, that can help women who suffer from the above mentioned labia discomfort.

 

Males are not immune from the need for reconstructive plastic surgery to the genital region. There is a 1% chance that a male who is uncircumcised will have a penis that is afflicted by the medical condition known as phimosis. Phimosis prevents the foreskin of the penis from fully retracting over the end of the penis, which tends to cause either discomfort or pain- but the main problem with phimosis isn't the discomfort or pain associated with it.

 

Uncircumcised penii are already more susceptible to infection than circumcised penii simply because of the fact that uncircumcised penii require more precise and time-consuming hygienic maintenance. Having the condition of phimosis means that an uncircumcised penis is even harder to clean and maintain, heightening the risk of infection even higher.

 

In order to fix phimosis, a patient can do one of two things: either get a circumcision or get a preputioplasty. For most males who have phimosis, circumcision is undesirable, likely due to religious reasons or the simple fact that a circumcision is quite painful and requires a long and uncomfortable recovery. The majority of males who have phimosis choose to undergo the preputioplasty, which is relatively painless and requires a much shorter recovery time than circumcision. When deciding to undergo a preputioplasty, it is of utmost importance that you do your research and choose the most qualified preputioplasty specialist in Los Angeles to perform your procedure.

2:32 AM - Gentle and Effective Specialized Surgeries for Men and Woman

Plastic surgery: best known for its transformation and enhancement of the nose, lips, chin, breast, stomach, and buttocks.  However, there is also a lesser known, much less talked about, body area that has the ability to be cosmetically augmented too.  VaginoplastyLos Angeles is a reconstructive surgery that has been performed for millions of women who desire a more aesthetically pleasing appearance for their vagina.  Years of damage from childbirth, difficulty in intercourse, physical trauma, or even cancer, can cause the tissue opening and muscles to stretch and widen so that it becomes loose, but this surgery willfirm up and reshape the tissues, so you can achieve a more youthful appearance, rejuvenated muscle tone, and restored elasticity to the vagina that improves sensation during sexual intercourse.
During an initial, in-office consultation, your surgeon will perform a physical examination to determine how much tightening and tissue removal is needed, and to ensure what are the specific requests you have for your body part.  Even the most minor details must be discussed for this procedure is highly delicate and requires close and exact actions. 
On the day of the vaginoplastyprocedure in los angeles, you will first be administered general anesthesia and sedation.  You doctor will then perform the surgery by trimming the excess vaginal lining and reinforcing the tissues, as well as any other detailing that you have requested at your consultation.  Then after about six weeks, you may achieve a complete recovery and may proceed with sexual activity.
Additionally, there is a sensitive genital procedure for males that is rarely discussed yet successfully performed millions of times.  Vasectomy Los Angeles is a highly effective and permanent male birth control thatprevents live, active sperm from entering the seminal fluids by blocking the vas deferens.  The vas deferens are thin channels that carry the sperm through the scrotum and out during ejaculation, but a vasectomy done in los angeles can block the tubes so sperm cannot reach and fertilize the woman's egg.  The surgery itself is simple and safe; typically performed in less than 30 minutes in the doctor's office.  It will begin with a local anesthesia to ease discomfort, and then you doctor will create a tiny incision in the scrotum.  He will gently pull out either the left or right vas deferens, snip and remove a small portion, heat seal the two ends of the tube (cauterized) and then place it back in the scrotum.  The tiny, external incision can be closed with stitches, or heal naturally on its own.
After the surgery, you will be instructed to stay off your feet and avoid any strenuous activity   for a couple of days, as well as wear snug cotton briefs to help apply pressure against your groin for support.  After a full six week recovery, your sperm will be collected and examined under a microscope to ensure that there are no more traces of sperm remaining.

2:23 AM - All About Vasectomies

There is a good chance that if you are a female, you won't need to visit a urologist if you've been keeping up a good hygiene routine, barring an unforeseeable health issue development. But if you are a male, there is quite a good chance that at some point in your life, most likely during your middle-age years, that you will have to go see a urologist- not because you are ill or haven't been taking good hygienic care of yourself, but because you will most likely need or want a vasectomy.
 
            A vasectomy is a procedure in which the vasa deferential of the male are severed and then tied or sealed such that sperm is prevented from entering into the seminal stream and therefore preventing ejaculation. Being a minimally invasive procedure taking only about ten to thirty minutes to complete, patients remain in minimal discomfort for a few days, with complete recovery occurring about a week after the procedure.
 
            Although a modern urologist is competent at performing a wide variety of procedures, such as treating benign prostatic hyperplasia (enlarged prostates) or performing Labiaplasty Los Angeles surgeries, more often than not, the majority of his dealings will be with vasectomy-related matters; each year, between 175,000 to 354,000 vasectomies are performed. The vasectomy procedure itself involves making a small incision in the scrotum after the application of local anesthetic and cauterizing each end of a cut vas deferens. After getting stitched up, antibiotic ointment and a gauze pad are applied to the area with the incision.
 
            You may have heard some horror stories about the pain that comes with vasectomies; these horror stories have been greatly exaggerated. Yes, there will be some swelling and discomfort after the procedure, but the discomfort and swelling will be relatively mild, and if you are too uncomfortable and in pain, the doctor may prescribe some pain relievers. For about a week or so after the surgery, you will need to wear a scrotal support garment or jockey shorts to encourage a rapid and successful recovery.
 
The most prominent reason men decide to get a Vasectomy Los Angeles is its effectiveness as birth control. According to the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, however, there is a 1 in 2000 chance that a vasectomy will fail (a failed vasectomy is one in which a pregnancy occurs despite the vasectomy procedure), but those are much better statistics than those of tubal ligations (getting your tubes tied) by females: in every 200 to 300 cases of tubal ligations, there is at least one failure. Also, vasectomies as a form of birth control, when compared to tubal ligation, are more advantageous in that they are less invasive, less risky, and more cost effective. A post-op return visit to the urologist is necessary in order to ensure that a successful vasectomy has taken place.

1:12 AM - Preputioplasty and Labiaplasty â?? Reconstructive Surgery for the Genitals

Men often suffer from a condition called phimosis where it is difficult for the foreskin to retract fully from the penis. This is not only a cosmetic problem but also functional, as it causes difficulty while urinating or intercourse. Similarly, women may face problems of damaged vagina because of childbirth or an enlarged labia causing discomfort. For these conditions, a person consults an urologist who usually recommends preutioplasty and labiaplasty as a correctional surgery. 
Phimosis in men is said to occur during developing years that gets resolved on its own. However, at times, trauma or diseases like developing tissues of white ring on foreskin stops the skin to retract. Though it is not clear what causes it, some believe that is brought on by bacterial or viral infection, or auto-immune disease. In another condition, there is redness and rashes on penis and foreskin along with pain and discharge.
 
 
Earlier, phimosis was treated using either steroid creams or circumcision. As circumcision used to cause much pain after the surgery, people started to look for minimal invasive procedure. That's when they came across preputioplasty , which preserved the foreskin by making small Y-shaped incisions to widen the ring at the end of the foreskin. The whole procedure can be completed in an hour and bring down the recovery time to few days to few weeks.
 
 
On the other hand, women wanting to restore their vagina would like to undergo labiaplasty . A labiaplasty tries to improve the appearance of vagina by reducing the labia. They may however be asked to make a choice between labia minora reduction and labia majora reduction. Labia minora reduction reduces the large labia minora that are visible while wearing swimsuits, leotards or any revealing clothes. Moreover, it may cause pain and discomfort during sex, wetness and irritation and discomfort during exercise. Labia majora though common, gets aggravated by estrogen stimulation, childbirth and extreme weight loss. It becomes noticeable while wearing tight-fitting clothes and may get embarrassing. Both labia minora reduction and labia majora reduction are often performed in conjunction with each other for better results.
 
Labiaplasty is performed sedatives and anesthesia and may take about an hour. After making an outline, excess tissue is removed and sutured allowing the area to heal properly. The scars formed are made to hide between the crease of labia minora and labia majora. The recovery time is of few weeks and requires the patient to stay away from strenuous activity, keep the area clean and take the medicines as prescribed.

4:21 AM - Urologist Los Angeles Can Help with your Erectile Dysfunction

As people age there are problems they have to worry about that may not have been as apparent in their youth.  Many of us feel younger than we are, physically, and it can be quite problematic when there are too many things we are no longer in control of. There may be a number of things we are finding we have problems with as we grow older. Some of these things may be less mobility, more soreness after moderate physical exercises and some of these problems may be more embarrassing like erectile dysfunction, for men and incontinence, for women.

 

If you are one of these people who feel that you should not have to worry about these types of physical issues because you are just too young or may be experiencing these aging problems prematurely, you may need to speak to a specialist regarding your concerns.

6:44 AM - Enlarged Prostate and Labiaplasty

A male reproductive system contains a gland called prostate that produces the fluid carrying sperm during ejaculation. When the gland becomes bigger it comes to be known as enlarged prostate. It is a common in men as they grow older. The growing gland presses the urethra causing bladder and urination problems. 

 

Though the cause of enlarged prostate is not known, it has been linked to aging and the testicles. However, men who have had their testicles removed may not develop enlarged prostate . The symptoms may include

 

·          Dribbling after urination.

·          Urinary retention.

·          Incomplete emptying of bladder.

·          Incontinence.

·          Urge to urinate frequently at night.

·          Urination followed by pain or bloody urine.

·          Slow or delay the urinary system.

·          Straining while urinating.

·          Weak urinary system.

 

At Dr. Safir's, the treatment for enlarged prostate may be based on the severity of the symptoms. The treatment may start with some self-care measures such as the patient being asked to

 

·          Urinate at the firs urge.

·          Avoid alcoholic beverages after dinner.

·          Avoid drinking fluids 2 hours within bedtime.

·          Avoid medications containing decongestants or antihistamines as they may increase the symptoms.

 

The patient may be prescribed medications such as 

 

·          Alpha-1 blockers to relax muscles of bladder neck and prostate. It may help to urinate easily.

·          Finasteride and dutasteride to reduce size of prostate increasing the urine rate. 

 

Additionally, surgical procedures may also be performed. The two most common surgical procedures are

 

1.       TURP (transurethral resection of the prostate). The patient is administered a general anesthesia or spinal anesthesia. The surgeon may insert a cystoscope or endoscope through urethra. A special cutting tool may then be inserted that removes prostate n pieces with an electric current.

2.       TUIP (transurethral incision of the prostate). It may be performed on men having smaller prostate. A cystoscope or endoscope is inserted and incisions may be made in the prostate enlarging the urethra opening and bladder outlet.  

 

Labiaplasty is a cosmetic procedure performed in women to improve the vagina's external appearance by reducing labia. In some women, the labia may be asymmetrical or big on one or both sides while in others it occurs after childbirth or aging. Labiaplasty may be either labia minora or labia majora.

 

At Dr. Safir's, Labiaplasty is performed under local anesthesia and may be performed in 1-2 hours. It is done on an outpatient basis without requiring any need for hospitalization. The after surgery precautions may include avoiding sexual activities and heavy strenuous activities for 6 weeks. It may also be recommended to maintain local hygiene.

6:42 AM - Erectile Dysfunction and Urinary Incontinence

Among the various specializations of medical science is urology that studies urinary tracts of males and females and male reproductive system. The surgeons specializing in the fields of urology are called urologist who may diagnose, treat and manage disorders such as erectile dysfunction in men and urinary incontinence in women.

 

An erectile dysfunction is a sexual dysfunction where a man is unable to develop or maintain an erection of the penis during sexual activity. Usually, to achieve a normal erection may require coordination between vascular, neurologic, hormonal and psychological factors. Any condition or factor that may interfere with the coordination may cause erectile dysfunction . The causes of erectile dysfunction are generally grouped into either endogenous factors or exogenous factors. The endogenous factors include endocrine imbalances, cardiovascular, other medical conditions and emotional causes. On the other hand, exogenous factors may include medications, surgery, trauma, irradiation, smoking, alcohol and substance abuse.

 

Similarly, in women, urinary incontinence is the inability of the urine to keep leaking from urethra. Urethra is the tube carrying urine out of body from bladder. Urinary incontinence may be classified as 

 

·          Stress incontinence. It may occur during coughing, sneezing, laughing or exercise.

 

·          Urge incontinence. It may create a strong and sudden need to urinate followed by bladder contraction and loss of urine.

 

·         Overflow incontinence. It may occur because of the bladder not able to empty completely resulting in dribbling.

 

Urinary incontinence may be caused by neuromuscular disorders, dementia, medications such as diuretics, antidepressants, tranquilizers, antihistamines, etc., pregnancy, infection or inflammation of urinary tract, weight gain, Alzheimer's disease, bladder cancer and spasms, pelvic prolapse and spinal injuries.

 

During an initial treatment at Dr. Safir's the patient may be asked to alter their lifestyle by avoid smoking, reduce obesity and control alcohol and substance abuse. The patient may be prescribed medications such as Viagra that has a longer effect, increases penile blood flow and produces erection. Also, penile prostheses may be used that are semi-rigid or inflatable devices. During the procedure, the patient may be administered general anesthesia and incisions are made in the abdomen and perineum. The device is inserted through these incisions along with fluid reservoir and pump that are placed in groin and scrotum respectively. The devices are connected by tubes and may be tested before closing the incisions.

 

The treatment for urinary incontinence at Dr. Safir's follows many approaches. It may involve methods such as bladder retraining and kegel exercises. Both these methods may help to strengthen the muscles of pelvic floor. In some cases, surgeries such as anterior vaginal repair and vaginal sling procedures may be performed. An anterior vaginal wall repair may tighten the front wall of the vagina. It either sinks the bladder into the vagina or sinks urethra into the vagina. On the other hand, in a vaginal sling procedure,  a sling made of mesh tape or tissue graft is used that supports urethra.

5:04 AM - Problems with Urinary Incontinence and Erectile Dysfunction

The problems men face on a daily basis with these two problems are a cause for much stress and a bad quality of life. These two problems can cause emotional issues and lead to embarrassing and sometimes uncomfortable situations. The men who suffer from erectile dysfunction can sometimes have problems in their love life, as well as their self-esteem being affected.
                In terms of Erectile Dysfunction , among older men, the problems are mostly physical. However, for men under 40, these symptoms may be the cause of psychological problems.  Some of the problems include: unrecognized homosexuality, (performance) anxiety, sense of loss, death in the family or financial problems.
                As for older men, the problems as stated before are physical. Although pills such as Viagra, Cialis or Levitra usually work, they are not the only form of treatment men can seek. Urologists are able to determine which drug or treatment is best. If drugs don't work, usually urologists may suggest injectable medications, and/or penile implants (or pumps). The injectable medication is called alprostadil, and it is able to produce an erection for men in 10 to 15 minutes. Implants such as "pumps" are implants that are inflatable and make the penis produce an erection in just a few simple pumps.
                As for urinary incontinence , it is a problem that affects older men, usually stemming from an enlarged prostate or urethral stricture. These two problems are different but sometimes lead to the same problems such as urgency to urinate, leakage of urine, waking up several times during the night to urinate, weak or interrupted urine stream, among others.
                Seeing a urologist can be the way to go to figure out what the problem may be. There can be many problems or diseases attributed to these sets of problems. However, if left untreated or worse yet undetected, many other issues can arise and conditions may worsen. The best way to go is to visit a urologist often (especially men after 40), to check on issues and diagnose conditions at an early stage.

The injectable medication is called alprostadil, and it is able to produce an erection for men in 10 to 15 minutes. Implants such as "pumps" are implants that are inflatable and make the penis produce an erection in just a few simple pumps.
                As for urinary incontinence , it is a problem that affects older men, usually stemming from an enlarged prostate or urethral stricture. These two problems are different but sometimes lead to the same problems such as urgency to urinate, leakage of urine, waking up several times during the night to urinate, weak or interrupted urine stream, among others.
                Seeing a urologist can be the way to go to figure out what the problem may be. There can be many problems or diseases attributed to these sets of problems. However, if left untreated or worse yet undetected, many other issues can arise and conditions may worsen. The best way to go is to visit a urologist often (especially men after 40), to check on issues and diagnose conditions at an early stage.

12:18 AM - Labiaplasty - Conditions Treated by Urologists

Southern California residents have no shortage of qualified healthcare professionals to choose from. This includes a wide range of talented urologists and cardiologists, throughout the greater Los Angeles and Ventura counties. Urology is the field of medicine that focuses on the urinary tracts of males and females, as well as the male reproductive system. Before you visit a local Burbank urologist, it's helpful to learn more about the types of conditions that a urologist treats. They diagnose, treat, and monitor any disorders that involve the kidney, urethra, bladder, and prostate. This can also include surgery. Labiaplasty is another type of surgery offered by urologists. Cardiologists offer many services, among one of the more popular one is CT heart scan.

 

One of the primary reasons to visit a Simi Valley urologist in your area is a recurrence of urinary tract infections. These can involve unpleasant symptoms such as painful or frequent urination. Overactive bladder, an enlarged prostate, erectile dysfunction and kidney stones are all other conditions that can be alleviated with the assistance of a qualified urologist. These involve inflammation of the reproductive and urinary systems, which could be due to myriad reasons. Some of the main symptoms of these conditions can be quite difficult to diagnose on your own, such as lower back pain or frequent urination. 

 

In some cases, these symptoms will be indicative of more serious urinary tract conditions, such as cancer of the kidneys, prostate or bladder. This is why it's essential not to ignore any medical symptoms, but instead seek out a qualified Los Angeles area or Westwood urologist who is most conveniently located near you. In addition to location, it's also helpful to take a look at the urologist's education, experience, and qualifications. Ask for references before you go in for any major treatments or surgery, and be sure that your health insurance is accepted by the urologist. 

 

Before you go in for the initial consultation with a new Pasadena urologist or any other local healthcare professional, it's helpful to write down a list of your symptoms. Make note of their frequency, when they first appeared, and the severity of each individual symptom. This will aid the urologist in making his or her diagnosis of your condition. Other factors to consider include your current medications, and questions about the long term prognosis of your condition. In some cases, you will need to see other specialists within the urology field to get the most accurate treatment plan. Fortunately, with the far-reaching web of medical professionals in this region, there are specialists for every condition.

4:14 AM - Dealing with Embarrassing Health Problems

Sometimes the toughest part of dealing with a medical condition is overcoming the embarrassment of the problem. There are numerous problems that are not a big deal to deal with. Patients talk openly with their doctors and think nothing of revealing health information about certain problems. Other problems are more difficult to face. The list of embarrassing problems varies from person to person, but urology is often on the list. Ask any Burbank urologist how difficult it is for people to reveal personal information about urology and they will agree it is one of the most popular medical problems to deal with.
 
For women, urology is the study of the urinary tract. In men, it covers not only urinary issues, but also reproductive issues. A Simi Valley urologist is able to help with problems dealing with using the bathroom, but also a host of issues dealing with the reproductive issues. Though it is one of the first things a man should deal with when it comes to health problems, it is often one of the most difficult. They feel the issues are personal and they do not want to admit to weakness or struggles with this part of their body. They suffer in silence because they believe dealing with the issue would be worse than suffering with the problem.
 
Seeing your urologist can be stressful, but it results in an improved quality of life. Dealing with health problems, no matter how uncomfortable, can only lead to better things. Facing an ongoing problem will put you on a healthier path. Instead of living with your stress, pain, or disorder, consult a Westwood urologist . You might be surprised when you learn how easy it is to deal with your problem. You would not wait until your tooth as throbbing and infected to see a dentist. Why should you put off dealing with other health problems you face? Just because you feel uncomfortable having the conversation does not mean you should continue to suffer.
 
Not only will you find peace of mind when you address an ongoing health problem, you will find those around you respond differently. Taking responsibility for your health is the sign of a strong, sensible person. Chances are if you are facing urology problems, you are not the only one struggling. You spouse has likely had to change their behavior or desires because of your health problem. A Pasadena urologist can help the two of you come to terms with whatever problems you face and find a solution that works for you and your spouse.

5:57 AM - Southern California Urologists: Diagnosing and Treating Urological Problems

There are various urological problems many individuals experience and receive treatment for. Throughout Southern California, many urology patients visit a general practitioner; however, a Los Angeles Urologist is a more specialized doctor when it comes to treating urological problems and is recommended. A Urologist has received specialized education and experience in treating urological problems and are specialized to treat them. From Urinary Incontinence, to Male Birth Control, and Erectile Dysfunction- a urologist can provide successful treatment options.
Erectile Dysfunction (ED) can be an embarrassing urological problem for men and is definitely not easily discussed. A Pasadena Urologist may address the situation by first discussing the cause of ED. Many think that the cause of ED is psychological but it may also be physical. A Urologist is specially trained to diagnose the cause(s) of ED in patients. Once the cause of ED is addressed, a treatment option is then implemented in the patient. Most common treatments of Erectile Dysfunction are drugs such as Viagra and Levitra. They cause dilation of blood vessels in the penis to improve the blood flow, making erections easier to achieve. If an oral drug doesn't work for a patient a highly effective penile implant may be recommended following a minimally-invasive procedure.
 
An embarrassing urological problem that is common among women and men is Urinary Incontinence. This problem may be treated by a Van Nuys Urologist for women in surrounding areas. There are different types and causes of urinary incontinence; however, it generally refers to increased pressure on the bladder, allowing urine to escape. Patients who have urinary incontinence may find themselves holding back a laugh or a sneeze and may avoid heavy lifting. After a urinary incontinence type and cause are diagnosed, treatment options are made available to patients. There are surgical and non-surgical treatments for urinary incontinence, one of which will be prescribed by a urologist. 
Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) or Enlarged Prostate is a commonly treated urological problem by a Thousand Oaks Urologist . Enlarged prostate refers to an overgrowth of prostate cells. Symptoms may include urinary urgency, frequency, and difficulty starting urination among other things. Once a patient is diagnosed, a surgical or non-surgical BPH treatment may be recommended depending on the patient's needs. Milder cases of BPH may be treated with medication while a more severe case of BPH may be treated by a minimally invasive BPH procedure.
