Orgasm: What is It, Orgasmic Disorders and Treatment
An orgasm is the peak of sexual pleasure, characterized by intense physical sensations and heightened arousal. It involves rhythmic muscular contractions and is often accompanied by ejaculation in individuals with a penis or pelvic floor muscle contractions in individuals with a vagina. During arousal, blood flow increases to the genitals, leading to erection, followed by...
Stem Cell Therapy for Erectile Dysfunction
Stem cell therapy (SCT) for erectile dysfunction (ED) is an innovative approach aimed at addressing the root causes of this condition by utilizing the regenerative potential of stem cells. Erectile dysfunction, characterized by the inability to achieve or maintain an erection sufficient for sexual intercourse, can be caused by various factors including aging, diabetes, cardiovascular...
Radiation Cystitis: Symptoms, Dignosis and Treatment
Radiation cystitis (RC) is a condition characterized by inflammation and irritation of the bladder that occurs as a result of radiation therapy, typically used to treat cancers in the pelvic region such as prostate, cervical, or bladder cancer. The radiation damages the healthy cells lining the bladder, leading to various symptoms including urinary frequency, urgency,...
Pyeloplasty Operation: Open, Laparoscopic and Robotic
Pyeloplasty Operation is a surgical procedure aimed at correcting a blockage or narrowing in the ureteropelvic junction (UPJ), which is the area where the kidney connects to the ureter. This obstruction can lead to urine backup, causing pain and potential damage to the kidney over time. During pyeloplasty, the surgeon typically removes the narrowed or...
Chronic Pelvic Pain in Men
Chronic pelvic pain (CPP) in men is a complex and often debilitating condition characterized by persistent discomfort or pain in the lower abdominal region, pelvis, and genital area. Unlike acute pelvic pain, which typically arises suddenly and is often associated with a specific cause such as injury or infection, chronic pelvic pain persists for at...
Hemorrhagic Cystitis: What is It, Causes, Symptoms, Diagnosis and Treatment
Hemorrhagic cystitis (HC) is a medical condition characterized by inflammation and bleeding in the bladder. This condition can be quite painful and may lead to various complications if left untreated. Hemorrhagic cystitis can be caused by several factors, including viral infections, such as adenovirus or cytomegalovirus, bacterial infections, certain medications (such as chemotherapy drugs or...
