Uroflowmetry: What a Flow Test Can Tell You, and What It Cannot

A flow test turns a vague complaint into a number — but the number is worthless if you passed too little urine, and a low flow cannot by itself distinguish a blocked outlet from a tired bladder.
Shockwave Therapy for Peyronie’s Disease: What It Helps, and What It Does Not

Shockwave therapy has a place in Peyronie’s disease, and that place is pain. It does not straighten the penis or shrink the plaque — and knowing the difference decides whether a course of it is worth your time.
hCG for Low Testosterone: Who It Can Help, and Who It Cannot

hCG raises testosterone by telling the testes to make it, so sperm production is preserved — but it only works if the testes can still respond. What it does to oestradiol, what still has to be monitored, and the alternatives.
Каковы реальные шансы забеременеть каждый месяц?

Saw Palmetto for an Enlarged Prostate: What the Trials Actually Found

Saw palmetto is the most-sold prostate supplement in the world, and the two largest trials found it no better than placebo — including at triple the usual dose. Why the quality-of-extract explanation does not hold, and the risk of treating the symptom without knowing the cause.
Rezum Water Vapour Therapy for an Enlarged Prostate: What It Does, and What to Expect Afterwards

Rezum treats an enlarged prostate with steam rather than cutting, and it protects sexual function in a way that prostate surgery does not. The parts men are least often told: the first few weeks are usually worse, not better, and some men need a second procedure years later.
