What is a cystoscopy and why might I need one?

A cystoscopy is a procedure that allows your urologist, such as Dr. Abdi, to look directly inside your bladder and urethra using a thin, lighted instrument called a cystoscope.

He will explain the procedure and any preparation needed.

What are some common tests a Urologist might perform or order?

Depending on your symptoms and condition, Dr. Abdi may perform or order several tests. These can include urinalysis (urine test), urine culture, blood tests (like PSA for prostate health), imaging studies (ultrasound, CT scan, MRI of the kidneys, bladder, or prostate), urodynamic studies (to assess bladder function), and cystoscopy (a scope to look inside the bladder and urethra). He will explain why any specific test is needed and what it involves.

When should I consider seeing a Urologist?

You should consider seeing a Urologist if you experience symptoms such as blood in your urine (hematuria), recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs), difficulty urinating (hesitancy, weak stream, straining), frequent or urgent need to urinate, urinary incontinence (leakage), pain in the flank, lower abdomen, or groin that might be related to kidney stones, or any concerns related to the male reproductive organs (e.g., testicular pain/lumps, erectile dysfunction, male infertility).
