Female urologist

Female urology is a branch of medicine focused on the diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the urinary system in women. Despite the common stereotype that a urologist is exclusively a “male doctor,” in practice urologists treat women just as often.

Discomfort or pain during urination, a feeling of pressure in the lower abdomen, urinary incontinence — these are all symptoms for which it is advisable to consult a female urologist. Timely treatment helps prevent disease progression, reduce the risk of complications, and return to everyday life without constant discomfort.

Even in the absence of pronounced pain, these symptoms may indicate the development of a urological condition. Timely scheduling of a urologist appointment for women helps avoid complications and the transition of the disease to a chronic form.

A urologist for women specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the urinary system in women. The doctor assesses the condition of the bladder, urethra, kidneys, and ureters and selects the optimal treatment strategy.

Most often, women consult a urologist for the following conditions:

• cystitis (acute, chronic, recurrent);
• urethritis and other inflammatory processes of the urethra;
• pyelonephritis and kidney infections;
• urolithiasis;
• overactive or neurogenic bladder syndrome;
• various forms of urinary incontinence;
• interstitial cystitis;
• complications after previous urinary tract infections;
• tumor diseases of the bladder or kidneys.

Special attention in female urology is given to the treatment of chronic and recurrent conditions that may persist for a long time with minimal symptoms but gradually impair quality of life.

A comprehensive diagnostic approach allows not only accurate identification of the cause of symptoms but also prevention of incorrect treatment. Based on examination results, the doctor develops an individual therapy plan aimed at eliminating the disease and preventing recurrences.

Treatment tactics in female urology are selected individually. The doctor takes into account the form and stage of the disease, the severity of symptoms, and the presence of comorbid conditions.

Depending on the clinical situation, the following treatment methods may be used:

• Medication therapy. Prescribed for inflammatory, infectious, and functional disorders and may include antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antispasmodic, hormonal, and other medications according to the diagnosis.
• Physiotherapy procedures. Used as an adjunct to primary treatment to reduce inflammation, improve blood circulation, decrease pain, and accelerate recovery.
• Minimally invasive methods. These include endoscopic procedures performed without incisions, with access through the urethra. They are used for functional urination disorders, certain forms of urinary incontinence, and other conditions that do not require open surgery. Such procedures are usually performed on an outpatient basis, are well tolerated, and do not require long recovery.
• Surgical treatment. Applied when medication or minimally invasive treatment is insufficiently effective, as well as in complex diseases of the urinary system. Surgical intervention is performed using modern sparing techniques that minimize tissue trauma and shorten the recovery period.

The treatment plan may be adjusted during follow-up depending on the body’s response to therapy and the dynamics of symptoms.

Special preparation is usually not required; however, following several recommendations helps make the visit as effective as possible.

Before the appointment, it is advisable to:

• perform standard hygiene procedures without using aggressive products;
• if possible, prepare the results of previous examinations, tests, or extracts from medical records;
• formulate complaints in advance and pay attention to the characteristics of symptoms (when they appeared, what increases or reduces discomfort).

Following these simple recommendations helps the doctor obtain complete information during the first consultation and, if necessary, immediately determine the further examination plan.

The clinic is staffed by a urologist for girls and women who has experience working with the specifics of the female genitourinary system and delicate urological problems that can arise at different ages.

A female urologist appointment begins with a detailed conversation during which the doctor carefully listens to the patient’s complaints, уточняет the nature of symptoms, their duration, and the conditions under which they appear. Information is also collected about past illnesses, chronic conditions, previous treatment, and examination results, if any were conducted earlier.

After that, a urological examination of women is usually performed. It allows assessment of the general condition and identification of possible external signs of urological disorders.

After the examination, the doctor can form a preliminary diagnosis. Urological diseases usually require accurate diagnosis, so laboratory tests and instrumental examinations may be prescribed. After receiving the results, the doctor establishes an accurate diagnosis and offers an individual treatment plan or further monitoring.
