Frequently asked questions
What are the common symptoms that your patients tend to present with?
Patients who come to see me have symptoms of testes cancer like lumps, pain and discomfort, or are worried they've got a lump in the testicle that could be malignant; or if they've tried to have kids for a while and have carried out a sperm test with a GP, or taken it upon themselves to do one, and effectively found an abnormality.
In terms of erectile dysfunction, some patients may come with difficulty in maintaining and sustaining erection, reduced libido, need for testosterone replacement therapy, or low energy levels; they may have had a screening by the GP that shows low testosterone levels. It's more about men's health and men's health screening. A lot of it is screening for outcomes such as erectile dysfunction and male infertility.
Some of the other patients have pelvic pain symptoms, such as pain in the genital region. Such patients come for investigation for the cause of the pain.
What are the treatments that you're able to offer your patients?
With fertility problems, sometimes patients don't need any treatment other than lifestyle optimisation and investigation. Some require hormone treatment or medical treatments. Some require surgical intervention. For example, if they've got no sperm on ejaculation, sometimes we can extract sperm from them. Sometimes they've had a vasectomy and they want to have a reversal of vasectomy. If they have a varicocele or varicose veins of the testicle, we can tie off the veins and try and improve sperm count.
If it's erectile dysfunction, the treatments that are usually given are medications that we prescribe for these conditions initially, or even testosterone replacement if they're candidates for that, followed by surgical management, or penile implants if necessary.
If they've got a bend in the penis (Peyronie's disease), we look at either doing surgery or pursuing medical treatments such as injectable.
If it's lumps or bumps associated with cancers, it can be treated. Alternatively, if the lumps or bumps are anything to do with hydrocele cysts or a tight foreskin, we can offer surgical intervention, circumcision or removing the lump or bump.
What are your areas of sub-specialist interest?
I'm an andrologist. I've been doing consulting in andrology for 15 years and super-specialise in that area. What that means is I deal with anything to do with disorders of the male reproductive system involving male fertility, Peyronie's disease, genital problems, lumps, bumps, testes cancers, among others.
