Frequently Asked Questions

Who is a Urologist?

A urologist is a specialised doctor who diagnoses and treats medical conditions that affect the urinary system. This includes disorders of the kidneys, bladder, ureters, and urethra. Urologists in Mumbai also treat disorders of the male reproductive organs, including the prostate gland, penis, testes, and scrotum. Urologists at Nanavati Max Hospital are some of the most experienced doctors.

What diseases do urologists treat?

There are several disorders and conditions that are treated by urologists. Some of the more common treated by them include -
  • Urinary Tract Infections (UTI) and urinary incontinence
  • Prostatitis
  • Tumours or cancers of the prostate gland, kidneys, bladder, adrenal glands, penis, and testicles
  • Kidney disease and stones
  • Interstitial Cystitis
  • Peyronie’s Disease
  • Varicoceles
  • Erectile Dysfunction and Infertility in men

Will I need to carry my medical reports when visiting a Urologist in Mumbai?

If you are experiencing any problems related to your urinary system or male reproductive organs, it is best to consult one of the top urologists in Mumbai. Make a list of all your symptoms before you consult the doctor. Note down any questions you may have. Carry any test reports that you may have with you.

Will I need to undergo any pathological tests before visiting a specialist?

A urologist is a specialist who will reach a diagnosis of your condition based on your symptoms, medical history (personal and family), and based on any medical reports you may have. If not already recommended by your general physician or another doctor, you need not undergo any tests before visiting a urologist in Mumbai. It is, in fact, likely that the urologist will recommend tests required to reach an accurate diagnosis.

When should I visit a urologist?

You may want to consult one of the best urologists in Mumbai if you experience one or more of the following symptoms -
  • Trouble urinating (weak flow, incomplete emptying)
  • Cloudy urine, blood in urine, pain during urination
  • Pain in the pelvic area
  • Inability to contain urine while laughing, sneezing, or bending
  • Erectile dysfunction (ED) or infertility in men

Will I need to disclose my medical history?

You can consult with some of the top urologists in Mumbai at Nanavati Max Hospital. These doctors are highly experienced in diagnosing and treating disorders of the urinary system and male reproductive system. However, to reach an accurate diagnosis, you will have to describe your symptoms and disclose your personal and family medical history.

What is the usual duration of treatment related to urinary problems?

The duration of treatment of urinary problems depends on the underlying cause and the severity of the disorder. Common issues like UTIs may resolve themselves in days, while chronic infections and diseases may require long term treatment and management.

What is the difference between a urologist and a nephrologist?

A nephrologist is a specialist who treats diseases that affect the function of the kidneys. This could include conditions such as the impact of diabetes, hypertension, and heart disease on the kidneys. A urologist deals with diseases that impact the urinary system and male reproductive system. Often urologists and nephrologists may work together to treat conditions like kidney stones, cancer, or kidney transplant.

Can a urologist treat diseases of the female reproductive system?

Most urologists treat disorders affecting the male reproductive organs. However, when it comes to female reproductive organs, a gynaecologist or a urogynaecologist may be the right person to consult.

What tests do urologists perform?

After taking a detailed medical history and listening to your symptoms, your urologist at Nanavati Max Hospital may administer one or more of the following tests –
  • Physical exam
  • Urinalysis (Urine test)
  • Blood tests
  • Semen test
  • Cystoscopy
  • Imaging tests such as ultrasound, CT or MRI scan
  • Biopsy

What is the standard treatment for stones that a urologist prescribes?

The treatment of kidney stones will depend on the size and number of stones and the frequency of recurrence. Some small stones may not require treatment, and the condition will resolve itself within a few days. In case of larger or multiple stones, your urologist may recommend any of the following procedures -
  • Shockwave lithotripsy
  • Cystoscopy and ureteroscopy
  • Percutaneous nephrolithotomy

Your urology doctor in Mumbai will also recommend dietary changes that will help prevent the formation of kidney stones.

Can a urologist treat prostate cancer?

Prostate cancer is diagnosed and treated by urologists. Consult one of the best urologists in Mumbai for a personalised treatment plan depending on the type, stage, and spread of prostate cancer. Your treatment may involve surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy.
