Let Z Urology Handle Your Vasectomy Safely & Comfortably

Let Z Urology Handle Your Vasectomy Safely & Comfortably

Chances are if you are a man, the subject of a vasectomy has come up sometime in your adult life. This is true if you are older. You and your significant other may have discussed whether it would be a good idea to go under the knife. If the decision has been made that you are going to go ahead with the procedure, it would be best to use Z Urology in South Florida for the procedure.

What is a Vasectomy?

A vasectomy is an option for men to undergo a permanent form of contraception. The procedure itself involves removing or blocking the vas deferens, which are the tubes that transport sperm from the testicles to the penis. In order for pregnancy to occur, a male’s sperm must reach the ovaries of a female through injection or intercourse. Many people look for ways to avoid pregnancy. These include condoms, female birth control and even Plan B as a last measure. If you are looking for a permanent and effective way to eliminate the concern of childbirth, then a Vasectomy may be your solution.

How Does the Procedure Work?

The Vasectomy procedure is mainly performed by a Urologist and is a minor procedure that have minimal invasiveness. Your conventional vasectomy is going to consist of the use of a scalpel. A surgeon will make two small slits within the scrotum. One on each side. These slits will allow the surgeon to enter your scrotum and remove the vas deferens in order to cancel out any form of sperm transportation to the penis. Once the vas deferens have been removed, these tubes are then sealed and the cuts are closed and stitched. There is also a form of vasectomy that doesn’t require a scalpel. This is called an incision vasectomy. The vas deferens will be clamped in place. Your doctor will then make a small hole in the skin of the scrotum in order to remove a piece of the vas deferens. Many people will choose this method as there is a lower risk of complications.

What is the Recovery Time?

The recovery process is actually much shorter than most would imagine. Doctors recommend that you take 2 – 3 days off from work following the surgery. However, since this is a surgery, there is a chance you will be feeling some mild pain or discomfort after the vasectomy. This is usually subsided by placing a bag of ice on your scrotum. Unfortunately, there may be some blood in the semen following the surgery. Also, you aren’t immediately drained of all the sperm within your body. Typically, the sperm count will be diminished after a maximum of three months. It is recommended that a man follows up on the surgery with a sperm count approximately 8 weeks afterward. If your semen tests come up with zero sperm counts after two attempts, then your ability to impregnate your partner is around the 1 percentile area.

If you are thinking of going ahead with a vasectomy, then contact Z Urology for a group that is dedicated to delivering world-class expertise in urology, along with an unwavering commitment to their patients. The three locations to choose from are located in Fort Lauderdale, Coral Springs, and Pompano Beach.

New Prostate Cancer Urine Test Shows Aggressiveness in Disease

New Prostate Cancer Urine Test Shows Aggressiveness in Disease

We at Z Urology treat many issues that pertain to urological health. One of the most important and frequent issues faced is that of prostate cancer. There is some promising news regarding prostate cancer testing coming out in the press.

A new prostate cancer urine test shows how aggressive the disease is and could reduce invasive biopsies. The researchers from the University of East Anglia have developed a new urine test for prostate cancer which also shows how aggressive the disease is.

The research team says their new test could reduce the number of unnecessary prostate cancer biopsies by 35 percent. Sadly, prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men. It develops slowly and typically will not require treatment.

The most common tests for prostate cancer include blood tests, an MRI scan or an invasive biopsy. Invasive biopsies can be very expensive, and even have psychological and societal costs to patients and healthcare systems alike.

The research team developed the new ExoGrail urine test by combining two biomarker sources. They used the measurements of a protein-marker called EN2 and the levels of gene expression of 10 genes related to prostate cancer risk. The ExoGrail test also provided risk scores for patients and highlighted those for which an invasive biopsy would have been beneficial.

The findings show that using information from multiple, non-invasive biomarker sources has the potential to greatly improve how patients with suspected prostate cancer are risk-assessed prior to an invasive biopsy.
