Urethritis – Treatment in Kyiv

The urethra is one of the most vulnerable areas of the genitourinary system, with a high risk of infection and inflammatory processes. Currently, doctors at our New Life Clinic frequently diagnose lesions of this organ, giving the devastating diagnosis of urethritis.

Treatment of urethritis is a highly complex process. In 95% of all cases, patients successfully received conservative treatment, consisting of physiotherapy and medication.

This condition is characterized by acute inflammation caused by the entry of pathogenic microflora into the urethra. The disease most often develops due to infection of the mucous membranes by pathogenic microbes. These microbes cause swelling, inflammation, scarring, and other morphological changes. The prognosis for this condition is quite favorable, but it requires prompt, competent medical attention. A urologist in Kyiv at New Life Family Medicine Clinic is ready to provide this service at any time, drawing on all their practical experience and the modern equipment of our medical facility.

The manifestations of urethritis vary widely, from severe symptoms requiring prompt treatment to a virtually asymptomatic course. Therefore, it is important to pay attention to any changes:

1. Burning and stinging during urination — one of the most common and characteristic signs.
2. Frequent urination and urgency — especially at night or with sudden, strong urges.
3. Urethral discharge (clear, cloudy or purulent) — often indicates infection.
4. Pain or a feeling of heaviness in the lower abdomen and pelvic area; sometimes radiating to the genitals.
5. Blood in the urine, cloudy urine, or a strong unpleasant odor — warning signs that require evaluation.
6. Nausea, vomiting, low-grade fever and general malaise — may occur with more widespread or complicated infection.
7. Discomfort or pain during sexual activity, reduced libido — possible accompanying symptoms.

Some symptoms of urethritis overlap with those of other urological conditions, making an accurate diagnosis essential to avoid mistreatment. Our clinic offers comprehensive diagnostic procedures that help identify the presence, type, and stage of urethritis.

The diagnostic process includes:

• Urine and blood tests
• Bacteriological cultures
• Ultrasound examination
• Urethral swabs or scrapings
• Additional instrumental diagnostics if needed

All necessary tests and examinations can be conducted directly at “New Life” Clinic. Based on the results, a urologist will determine the most effective treatment plan.

This condition predominantly affects men—over 65% of all diagnosed cases occur in male patients. Women are less frequently affected due to anatomical and physiological differences.

In our urology department, we most commonly encounter male urethritis, which may be associated with primary pathogenic factors, secondary complications, or underlying diseases. Although urethritis may initially seem like a minor issue, it can lead to serious consequences. In women, its symptoms can be vague, which often results in self-treatment, and the same misconception is common among men.

Self-medication or delayed medical consultation can lead to the following complications:

• Inflammation of reproductive organs
• Nephrosis, nephritis, and other kidney diseases
• Urination problems
• Painful sensations
• Persistent discomfort in the lower abdomen and groin
• Difficulty walking
• Issues with potency and ejaculation
• Decreased libido
• Development of early-stage infertility

Without proper medical care, treating urethritis can become costly, reduce personal productivity, and negatively impact relationships. Additionally, untreated urethritis can transition into a chronic form, making it much harder to treat.

Surgical treatment for urethritis is also practiced by our urologists and is performed right here at New Life Clinic. However, it is indicated for secondary forms in advanced stages, as well as for narrowing of the urethra. Our service is always affordable, reliable, and accessible. We find individualized solutions for our patients, taking into account their physiology and capabilities.
