Pediatric urology
Many reproductive health problems in adulthood can be avoided by paying attention to the genitourinary system of boys and girls from early childhood. The children's urologist-andrologist deals with these issues.
Pediatric urology is responsible for the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of congenital and inflammatory diseases in children under the age of 18. A visit to a doctor is necessary in the first year of life, during the period of active growth of the child, as well as in case of any signs of deviation from the norm in the development of the genitourinary system. This will help to timely identify and promptly cure cystitis, urethritis, enuresis, urolithiasis and other diseases.
Diseases of the genitourinary system can be congenital or acquired. The first are detected during routine appointments. The latter may appear at any time. Delay in contacting a specialist increases the risk of complications that negatively affect fertility. Therefore, it is important to undergo routine examinations with a urologist and seek advice at the first suspicion of deviations from the norm.

How is the reception
Admission always begins with a medical history study. From it, the doctor receives information about the past illnesses and the current condition of the patient.
The next step is to examine the condition of the genitals, abdomen and kidneys. The doctor prescribes an additional examination if an external examination is not enough. This can be laboratory tests, ultrasound, radiography, uroflowmetry, or video cystoscopy.
