Urology Q&A

Answers to Your Most Searched Urology Questions

Our specialists answer the questions Kenyan patients search for most — honest, evidence-based answers with no jargon.

What causes erectile dysfunction in young men in Kenya?

Common causes in young Kenyan men include high blood pressure, diabetes, stress and anxiety, low testosterone, lifestyle factors (smoking, alcohol, obesity) and vascular issues. URO-CARE offers comprehensive diagnosis and treatment — call +254 112 268 709.

What are the early warning signs of kidney stones?

Kidney stone symptoms include severe sharp pain in the back or side, pain radiating to the groin, blood in urine, nausea, vomiting and frequent or burning urination. If you experience these in Nairobi, seek urgent urology assessment at URO-CARE.

How often should Kenyan men get a prostate check?

URO-CARE recommends starting the conversation at 40 for Kenyan men, and firmly at 40 for anyone with a father or brother who has had prostate cancer. Men with no family history can reasonably begin annual screening at 50. Read our full prostate screening guide.

Can male infertility be treated in Nairobi?

Yes. URO-CARE offers comprehensive male infertility treatment including semen analysis, hormonal profiling, varicocele repair and surgical sperm retrieval. All consultations are completely confidential.

Is shockwave therapy for ED available in Nairobi?

Yes. URO-CARE is one of the few clinics in Kenya offering low-intensity ultrasonic shockwave therapy (LiSWT) for erectile dysfunction — non-invasive, no surgery or medication required.

What is the difference between ESWL and laser kidney stone treatment?

ESWL uses external shockwaves to fragment stones — fully non-invasive, ideal for smaller stones. Laser ureteroscopy suits harder, larger or lower ureteral stones. Our specialist recommends the best approach after imaging review.
