Preparation for a Urology Visit: Precautions from Cleaning to Examination
3. Don't wash too thoroughly before your medical appointment.
Mr. Mao has been experiencing discomfort and discharge in his external genitalia for the past two days and is considering going to the hospital to see a doctor.
Before leaving home, I made sure to wash myself thoroughly. But when I arrived at the hospital, the urologist told me to wash...
It's too clean; you can't see any problems from the outside. Let him come back in a couple of days when it gets "dirty."
Recommendation: Many people experience [a certain condition] before seeing a doctor, especially for reproductive system diseases.
In Mr. Mao's case, he should pay extra attention to personal hygiene and wash himself thoroughly from head to toe before going to the hospital.
In fact, many urogenital diseases, especially lower urinary tract diseases, can manifest as urethral involvement.
Discharge is an important clinical manifestation. Experienced physicians can often identify it by fully understanding the relevant information.
After reviewing the patient's medical history, the characteristics of these secretions were analyzed, including their location, extent, and color.
Odor, consistency, and whether it is accompanied by blood and pus can provide a preliminary clinical diagnosis.
This type of secretion is still used for routine examination of lesions and in-depth etiological examination and drug sensitivity testing.
Sensory testing and other essential "raw materials." Therefore, preserving the "scene" can also aid in diagnosis.

4. Abstinence from sex may be required before the examination.
Mr. Hao and his wife had been married for two years but had no children. After much consideration, they decided...
He went to the hospital for a checkup. After waiting in line for a long time, the doctor wanted to perform a semen analysis on Mr. Sun.
Mr. Sun said embarrassedly, "I just had sex last night, so I'm having some trouble now."
Recommendation: Abstinence is required before some andrological examinations, such as semen analysis.
3-5 days, and no more than 7 days. Less than 3 days or more than 7 days will affect semen formation.
This can affect a doctor's diagnosis and analysis of the disease. It's important to note that abstinence, besides prohibiting sexual intercourse...
In addition to the bedroom, this also includes prohibiting masturbation or nocturnal emission. If multiple semen analyses are required, each sample...
The number of days of abstinence before collecting semen should be kept as constant as possible to reduce fluctuations in semen analysis results.
If the abstinence period is not long enough, the requirements for semen collection may not be met.
5. Couples come for treatment together.
Mr. Li immediately claimed to have premature ejaculation upon arriving at the hospital, but when asked specifically how long it took him to ejaculate, he could not provide a detailed answer.
He talks for less than a minute one minute, then five or six minutes the next. I'd like to ask his wife about it.
He never came, and as a result, his diagnosis was very unclear.
Recommendation: Many male patients go to see a doctor alone and rarely bring their wives along.
In fact, when it comes to andrological diseases, it's best to maintain a harmonious relationship with one's wife as much as possible, without affecting the marital relationship.
Children going to the clinic together can help them better understand and recognize the disease. Statistics show that...
In clinical practice, over 70% of couples seeking treatment for male diseases have a better understanding of their condition than the patients themselves.
It is clearer and easier to understand, and also more objective and valuable. Many subtle details of the medical history need to be heard.
This conclusion was reached after careful consideration of both parties' opinions. If one only "listens to one side" and believes the male patient's account, many...
Misdiagnosis may occur at times, but if both partners come to see a doctor together, it will be more effective in treating erectile dysfunction.
This is particularly beneficial for treating male sexual dysfunctions such as premature ejaculation, because by having both partners jointly explain their condition, it can help...
Doctors can better understand patients' conditions, thus providing correct advice and prescriptions. Meanwhile, both...
Being together also allows couples to receive better guidance from doctors. If necessary, the doctor will also provide further medical advice to the couple.
The couple designed a personalized treatment plan, using various methods to support the treatment. Especially those with...
Male sexual dysfunction may be caused by psychological factors, and the root cause may lie with the wife.
On the child's body. Going to the hospital with one's wife can dispel mutual doubts and reduce [the risk].
Tension in the marital relationship can interfere with sexual function. In this case, the wife can be informed about treatment options and given tacit support.
A proper combination of ingredients allows the drug to exert its maximum efficacy.
Below, we will categorize male infertility, erectile dysfunction (impotence), premature ejaculation, and chronic...

How are sperm produced?
Sperm production is a very complex, delicate, and subtle process. To facilitate understanding...
Solution: We can think of this process as the manufacturing and processing of a product, and of course, ultimately...
The product is sperm.
Sperm is produced in the testes; in other words, the testes are the sperm production factory.
The testicles mainly contain three types of cells: spermatogenic cells, interstitial cells, and...
These are called supporting cells, and the spermatogenic cells within them produce sperm through a series of intricate changes.
Simply put, the most primitive spermatogenic cells are called spermatogonia, which divide multiple times to become sperm.
Spermatogonia (spermatogonia) develop from cells, eventually becoming sperm cells. A single spermatogonium undergoes multiple divisions to develop into sperm.
It produces 256 sperm. Generally speaking, the larger the testicles, the stronger the spermatogenesis. Approximately per gram
Each testicular tissue produces 10 million sperm, and both testes can typically produce hundreds of millions of sperm daily.
The process is continuous. The other two types of cells play an essential supporting and logistical role.
Barrier function.
Since the testicles are the production factory, then in order to produce sperm normally, there needs to be a "higher-level department".
The "gate" issues the correct production instructions; this "superior department" is mainly located in the brain, specifically...
It's the pituitary gland and hypothalamus. They issue production instructions through precise hormone secretion; if this...
The communication is smooth, and once the testicles receive the instruction, they can begin production according to the superior's orders.
