What is men’s health?

Genesis Personal Healthcare Medicine offers men’s health services so you can achieve your best possible wellness at any age. Men’s health addresses conditions that commonly affect men as well as conditions that affect men exclusively.

During visits, your provider checks in with you about any recent changes to your health or developments since your last visit. They may perform some tests to gather information about different parameters of your health. 

Your provider makes recommendations for treatment based on your diagnoses and personal preferences. Genesis Personal Healthcare Medicine takes a conservative approach to men’s health issues whenever possible. 

Which conditions does men’s health address?

Your provider at Genesis Personal Healthcare Medicine asks about your symptoms in order to make an accurate diagnosis. They can diagnose, treat, or help you manage:

Prostate concerns

Your prostate is a gland that produces seminal fluid. The gland can develop complications such as enlargement, infections, or cancer. The team at Genesis Personal Healthcare Medicine offers prostate cancer screenings to help catch prostate cancer when it’s in a more treatable stage.

Erectile dysfunction

Erectile dysfunction (ED) is the inability to get or maintain a firm erection, and it can happen for many reasons. Some of the most common causes, which are treatable, are low testosterone, high blood pressure, alcohol consumption, and taking certain medications. 

The team at Genesis Personal Healthcare Medicine treats ED so that you can experience a more gratifying sex life.

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia

Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is a noncancerous condition that is common in men over the age of 50. BPH causes the prostate to enlarge, which causes symptoms such as frequent urination, weak or slow stream, or urine dribbling or leakage.

Low testosterone

Testosterone, the male sex hormone, plays a role in your libido, muscle building, and energy. With low testosterone, which can happen as you age, you get symptoms like fatigue, moodiness, decreased bone mass, and sexual dysfunction. Genesis Personal Healthcare Medicine provides testosterone replacement therapy to help you feel more like yourself again.

High blood pressure

Your blood pressure is the measurement of the force that your blood places on the walls of your blood vessels. High blood pressure can lead to serious health complications such as heart disease, stroke, or aneurysms. Often, high blood pressure develops from an underlying condition or a medication you take. Most of the time, it comes with no symptoms until it reaches a critical stage. 

Which men’s health services are available?

An important men’s health service is a preventive medical exam. Genesis Personal Healthcare Medicine encourages you to come for a preventive exam at least once a year to re-evaluate your health and lifestyle.

Genesis Personal Healthcare Medicine helps address and treat men’s health issues through many different services, including prescription pharmaceutical medications and changes in your diet and lifestyle. 

After making a diagnosis, your provider creates a comprehensive treatment plan tailored to your unique situation.
