What can I expect during a men’s health consultation?
During your men’s health consultation at Texas Urological Clinic, Dr. Todd spends time learning about your health and reviewing your personal and family medical histories. He also asks questions about your diet, lifestyle, and sexual wellness.
To assess your overall health, Dr. Todd completes a physical exam. He may also request bloodwork or urine testing to identify undiagnosed medical issues like diabetes or infections that can complicate your health.
Blood tests also provide information about your levels of testosterone, a reproductive hormone.
For older men, Dr. Todd may suggest a prostate exam to identify early warning signs of BPH (prostate enlargement) or prostate cancer. You could also need preventive screenings if you have risk factors for cancer or another chronic urological disease.
Dr. Todd can discuss ways you can optimize your physical health and sexual wellness through lifestyle changes, dietary improvements, and other strategies. If your tests reveal any underlying health issues, Dr. Todd customizes a care plan to manage your condition or can refer you to a specialist for additional care.
