Here are answers to some common questions about proactive Urologic care with Dr. Omar Hamoui:

What is a Urologist?

A urologist is a surgical specialist who diagnoses and treats conditions of the urinary tract in both men and women, and the reproductive system in men. They manage a wide range of issues, from kidney stones and urinary tract infections to cancers of the prostate, bladder, and kidneys.

At what age should men start discussing prostate cancer screening?

Discussions about prostate cancer screening, including the PSA blood test, typically begin around age 50 for average-risk men. However, for higher-risk men, such as African American men or those with a family history, this conversation may start earlier, around 40-45. This is a shared decision-making process with Dr. Hamoui.

What is BPH (Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia), and is it related to cancer?

BPH is a very common, non-cancerous enlargement of the prostate gland that occurs as men age. It is not prostate cancer and does not increase the risk of developing it. Dr. Hamoui and our team offer many effective treatments to manage the urinary symptoms it can cause.

What are the signs of a urinary tract infection (UTI)?

Common UTI symptoms include frequent or urgent urination, a burning sensation during urination, cloudy or strong-smelling urine, and pelvic pain. If you experience these symptoms, please see Dr. Hamoui for diagnosis and treatment to prevent potential complications.

How is Low Testosterone (Low T) diagnosed and treated?

Low testosterone is diagnosed with a simple blood test, typically done in the morning. If levels are low and you have symptoms, Dr. Hamoui can discuss safe and effective treatment options, such as gels, injections, or pellets.

What is the most common sign of testicular cancer?

The most common sign of testicular cancer is a painless lump or swelling in a testicle. Monthly self-exams are crucial for young men, as early detection is key to the very high cure rate for this cancer.

What are urodynamics?

Urodynamic testing is a series of tests evaluating how well the bladder and urethra store and release urine. These tests help Dr. Hamoui understand the precise cause of complex issues like incontinence or difficulty urinating, leading to a more effective treatment plan.

What is a cystoscopy?

A cystoscopy is a common diagnostic procedure where your urologist, Dr. Hamoui, uses a thin tube with a camera (cystoscope) to look directly inside your bladder and urethra. This allows us to check for issues like tumors, stones, or bleeding. It's a quick, routine office procedure.
