At the Sioufi Urology Clinic, we recommend regular urological health check-ups to prevent and detect any conditions affecting the prostate, bladder, and kidneys early.
After age 40, the risks of developing urinary disorders, benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) or prostate cancer increase, making these examinations essential.
Why have a urological check-up after 40?
Several pathologies can appear from the age of forty, particularly in men. Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is common and can cause bothersome symptoms such as difficulty urinating, a weak stream or frequent urination. Since prostate cancer is one of the most common, early detection by a PSA (prostate-specific antigen) test can make a difference.
In women, hormonal changes after menopause can cause recurring urinary tract infections, bladder problems, or incontinence. Urological monitoring can help treat these problems before they become more serious.
What tests are performed?
A complete urological assessment includes several tests to assess the health of the urinary and genital systems:
PSA test: A blood test to detect the risk of prostate cancer.
Renal and bladder ultrasound: Structural analysis of the kidneys and bladder to identify the presence of kidney stones, cysts or infections.
Urinalysis: Looks for urinary tract infections and blood or metabolic abnormalities.
Urodynamic assessment: Study of the functioning of the bladder and the sphincter to assess urinary disorders.
Digital rectal examination: Clinical examination of the prostate to detect hypertrophy or suspicious abnormalities.
The benefits of regular monitoring
Early detection and personalized monitoring allow:
To quickly detect serious pathologies such as prostate cancer or kidney problems.
To prevent the development of age-related urinary disorders.
To adapt treatment or monitoring solutions based on the results.
At the Sioufi Urology Clinic, we establish a follow-up plan adapted to each patient based on age, family history and risk factors.
After 40, a regular urological check-up is essential to maintain good urinary health and prevent the onset of serious pathologies. Make an appointment today for a complete examination at the Sioufi Urology Clinic and ensure your well-being in the long term.
