Sudden Inability to Pass Urine in Women: Causes, and Why It Needs Attention Today

Far less common than in men, and for that reason more often dismissed. The causes are different — prolapse, childbirth, medication, nerve problems — and in young women there is one diagnosis that is repeatedly missed for years.

Herpes genitale (HSV): perché si ripresenta e come tenerlo sotto controllo

Genital herpes cannot be cured, but it can be controlled well — and that distinction matters more than most patients realise. Dr. Soarawee Weerasopone, urologist at Bangkok Hospital, explains how HSV behaves, why outbreaks return, and what actually reduces them.

Enucleazione della prostata con laser a olmio (HoLEP)

HoLEP removes the whole prostatic adenoma in one piece with a holmium laser, and outperforms conventional TUR-P on almost every measure.

For a urologist a urinary catheter is routine; for the patient it is anything but. Dr. Soarawee Weerasopone, urologist at Bangkok Hospital, answers the questions patients ask before the procedure — why it is needed, whether it hurts, how long it stays, and how to care for one at home.

Angiomiolipoma del rene: Un comune tumore renale benigno

Being told a scan has found a kidney tumour is frightening — but angiomyolipoma is benign, and most need only watching. Dr. Soarawee Weerasopone, urologist at Bangkok Hospital, explains how it is diagnosed from imaging alone and why 4 cm is the number that matters.

Blood in Semen (Hematospermia): What It Means and When to Worry

Seeing blood in semen is alarming, but in most men it is harmless and settles on its own. Dr. Soarawee Weerasopone, urologist at Bangkok Hospital, explains what causes it, why age 40 changes the approach, and which cases genuinely need investigation.

PRP Injection for Erectile Dysfunction: What the Evidence Actually Supports

Platelet-rich plasma is marketed hard as a regenerative cure for erectile dysfunction. Dr. Soarawee Weerasopone looks at what the trials actually show, why the major urological guidelines still call it investigational, and what to establish before paying for any regenerative therapy.
