Urology is a branch of medicine and a surgical specialty that deals with disorders of the male and female urinary tract and the male reproductive organs. The urinary tract includes the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra. The male reproductive organs include the testes, epididymis, vas deferens, prostate, seminal vesicles, and penis. Urologists are trained in surgery and medicine and use both surgical and medical treatments to treat their patients. Urologists may also use minimally invasive procedures, such as lasers and endoscopes, to treat disorders of the urinary tract and reproductive organs. Urologists treat patients with kidney stones, urinary tract infections, incontinence, and urinary tract cancers, as well as patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), erectile dysfunction, and male infertility.
