Have you given up activities you enjoy because you're afraid of an accident? ·
Do you get up several times each night to urinate?
Does it sometimes feel like you need to urinate, but can't?
 If you answered "yes" to any of the questions above, you may be suffering from a prostate problem.
There are several types of prostate problems. Your doctor can help you find out if your symptoms are signs of a prostate condition or if they're due to another problem, such as a bladder infection. Symptoms can have a wide range of causes and are not always signs of prostate problems. In many cases, behavioral changes or medications can relieve the symptoms or treat the causes of your discomfort.
If you have symptoms, take the quiz to learn more about potential causes.

We've been hearing about vasectomies for years, and may think we know all about this procedure for male sterilization.
But, did you know that now there is a method that doesn't involve using a scalpel to make incisions, but rather an instrument that makes just one small puncture? Since there is no incision, no stitches are required. The procedure is faster, and permits a quicker recovery.
And were you aware that vasectomy reversal is becoming more common? Specialists in microsurgery have developed techniques that are increasingly successful in reversing a vasectomy, even if it was performed many years earlier. This is a truly exciting development for men whose life situation has changed and who now want to be able to father children.
Dr. Robert Finnerty of Northwest Urology Center is considered to be an expert in the United States on surgical vasectomy reversals. He has performed nearly 2,000 such procedures, and is often called upon as a consultant in difficult cases. He is pleased to share his knowledge and experience in this section.

It's been a hushed subject for years. Men won't even talk about it with their best friends, much less their doctor. They think that they have some sort of mental or emotional problem preventing them from successfully engaging in sexual intercourse. The male withdraws from close contact with his partner, and figures he just has to live with this problem.
And his partner begins to think that she no longer excites him, and maybe even that he's found someone else to satisfy his sexual desires. She thinks it's her fault, and feels that their relationship is slowly falling apart.

You just went to the bathroom an hour ago. And now you urgently need to go again. But, very little urine comes out, and it has a terrible odor. And there's a burning sensation. This started yesterday, and it's happening more and more often. It seems like it's even getting worse.
