Male infertility affects millions of men worldwide and contributes to nearly half of all infertility cases. Common causes can include low sperm production, poor sperm function, blockages or environmental factors. The diagnosis and treatment of male infertility typically involve medical evaluations, semen analysis and options such as medication, lifestyle changes or surgical procedures.

Join us for a virtual discussion, during Urology Awareness Month, exploring male infertility, including causes, screening and treatment approaches.

Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) occurs when one or more pelvic organs drop from their position. While POP is not life threatening, it can cause pain and discomfort. Symptoms can generally be improved with pelvic floor exercises and lifestyle changes, but sometimes medical treatment is needed. Join us, with faculty from the Department of Urology, for a virtual discussion, during Urology Awareness Month, exploring POP, including risk factors, symptoms and treatment approaches.

The kidneys are vital organs that help maintain a healthy balance of electrolytes, body fluids and blood pressure. Kidney stones are hard mineral deposits that form within the kidneys and may disrupt this function and cause significant pain and other serious complications. Join us, during National Urology Awareness Month, for a virtual discussion including an overview on kidney stones, its causes, as well as how to treat an acute stone episode, the various surgical managements for uncomplicated and complex stone conditions, the metabolic evaluation, and strategies to prevent them.
