Andrology
Andrology (from Ancient Greek: ἀνήρ, anēr, genitive ἀνδρός, andros, "man"; and -λογία, -logia)
is the medical specialty that deals with male health,
particularly relating to the problems of the male
reproductive system and urological problems that are unique to men.
It is also known as "The science of Men".
It is the counterpart to gynaecology, which deals with medical issues which are
specific to the female reproductive system. However unlike gynaecology, which
has a plethora of medical board certification program worldwide, andrology has
none.
Andrology has only been studied as a distinct
specialty since the late 1960s: the first specialist journal on the subject was
the German periodical Andrologie (now called Andrologia), published from 1969 onwards.
Male-specific medical and surgical procedures
include Vasectomy, Vasovasostomy (one of the vasectomy reversal procedures), Orchidopexy
and Circumcision as well as intervention to deal with male genitourinary
disorders such as the following:
