Andrologists online in Spain

Andrology is a medical specialty dedicated to the assessment of male reproductive, hormonal, and sexual health. It focuses specifically on conditions that affect male physiology across different stages of adult life.

Unlike general urology, andrology concentrates on functional and endocrine aspects of male health rather than surgical pathology alone. This includes reproductive function, hormonal balance, and sexual health concerns.

Andrologists evaluate symptoms that may develop gradually and are often influenced by multiple factors, including age, metabolic health, and lifestyle.

Consultations are commonly sought when changes affect fertility, sexual function, or overall hormonal well-being.

The core of andrology is clinical assessment and diagnostic clarification before defining any management strategy.

Fertility-related concerns are a frequent reason for consultation, including reduced sperm quality, infertility, or abnormal semen analysis results.

Many patients seek andrology assessment for erectile dysfunction, reduced libido, or changes in sexual performance that persist over time.

Hormonal symptoms such as fatigue, decreased muscle mass, mood changes, or suspected testosterone imbalance are also commonly evaluated.

Andrologists assess male reproductive health in the context of chronic conditions such as obesity, diabetes, or cardiovascular disease.

Concerns that affect confidence, relationships, or quality of life often prompt specialist evaluation.

Hormonal balance plays a central role in male health, particularly testosterone regulation. Changes in hormone levels may affect sexual function, energy, mood, and body composition.

Andrologists assess symptoms that may suggest hormonal imbalance, rather than relying on laboratory values alone. Hormone levels are interpreted in clinical context.

Testosterone-related issues can present differently depending on age and overall health. Not all symptoms are caused by hormone deficiency.

Careful evaluation helps distinguish physiological variation from clinically relevant conditions.

This approach reduces unnecessary treatment and supports appropriate medical decisions.

Sexual health is a core component of andrology and includes the assessment of erectile function, ejaculation disorders, and libido changes.

Erectile dysfunction may have vascular, neurological, hormonal, or psychological contributors. Andrology focuses on identifying these contributing factors.

Reproductive concerns include sperm production, testicular function, and factors affecting fertility potential.

Andrologists consider both short-term symptoms and long-term reproductive health when assessing these conditions.

Structured evaluation is essential before discussing any treatment options.

Some conditions that affect male health require evaluation by other specialties. Structural abnormalities, acute pain, or suspected malignancy may require urology involvement.

Systemic endocrine disorders may need coordination with endocrinology. Psychological contributors may require mental health support.

Andrologists recognise when symptoms fall outside the scope of their specialty and require referral.

Not all male health concerns are androgen-related.

Clear boundaries help ensure appropriate and timely care.
