🩺 What Is Andrology?
Andrology is the medical specialty focused on male reproductive and sexual health. It addresses conditions such as infertility, erectile dysfunction, hormonal disorders, infections, and structural abnormalities.
Evaluation may include a medical history, physical examination, hormone tests, semen analysis, ultrasound, or other investigations. Treatment depends on the diagnosis and may involve medication, lifestyle changes, fertility care, or surgery.
At Xiamen Humanity Hospital, andrology is part of the Urology Department, allowing patients to receive coordinated care for reproductive, sexual, urinary, and prostate-related conditions.
🩺 Types of Andrology Services and Treatment
- Male Infertility Evaluation and Treatment – Care includes assessing factors affecting sperm production, quality, reproductive function, or conception. Evaluation may involve medical history, semen analysis, examination, laboratory tests, and additional testing. Treatment depends on the cause and may include medical care or referral to reproductive specialists.
- Male Sexual Dysfunction Care – Specialists assess erectile dysfunction and other sexual concerns, considering vascular, neurological, metabolic, psychological, medication-related, and genitourinary causes. Treatment is tailored to the patient’s health and findings.
- Chronic Prostatitis and Prostate-Related Care – Persistent pelvic pain, urinary symptoms, painful ejaculation, and related concerns are evaluated to identify inflammatory, infectious, muscular, urinary, or other causes. Treatment may include medication, symptom management, lifestyle changes, or further urological care.
- Male Genitourinary Infection Management – Infections of the urinary or male reproductive system may cause pain, urinary symptoms, discharge, inflammation, or reproductive concerns. Testing guides treatment, including targeted care for sexually transmitted and recurrent urinary infections.
- Male Reproductive and Genital Structural Conditions – Congenital or acquired abnormalities may affect urinary, sexual, reproductive, or physical comfort. Management can include observation, medication, reconstructive treatment, or surgery.
- Diagnostic Andrology Assessment – Comprehensive evaluation helps investigate unexplained infertility, sexual changes, recurrent symptoms, reproductive discomfort, or abnormal test results. Testing is selected based on the patient’s symptoms.
- Medical Andrology Treatment – Many conditions can be treated without surgery through medication, infection or inflammation management, lifestyle changes, or targeted therapies. Treatment begins after appropriate evaluation.
🩺 Who Is a Good Candidate?
Andrology care may be appropriate for adult men experiencing persistent or unexplained concerns involving fertility, sexual function, reproductive health, prostate symptoms, or the male genitourinary system.

📝 Consultation & Preparation
Consultation is essential in andrology to identify the correct cause before recommending treatment. Patients traveling to Xiamen may submit previous medical records in advance to help the team understand their condition.
✔️ Detailed review of symptoms and medical history The specialist will ask when the problem began, how symptoms have changed, and whether previous treatment has provided improvement.
✔️ Review of fertility and reproductive history Patients seeking fertility evaluation may be asked about previous pregnancies, duration of infertility, reproductive history, and any previous semen or fertility investigations.
✔️ Sexual health assessment when relevant Patients experiencing erectile or other sexual dysfunction should provide an accurate history of the problem because the pattern of symptoms can help guide further investigation.
🩺 Recovery & Aftercare
Recovery depends on your diagnosis and treatment. Medication-based care may require little follow-up, while surgical or reproductive procedures may involve activity restrictions, wound care, and scheduled checkups.
Follow your andrologist’s instructions carefully.
✔️ Elevate the hand when recommended to help control early swelling
✔️ Begin gentle finger movement according to the surgeon’s instructions
✔️ Avoid unnecessary pressure directly over the surgical area during early healing
