Question
Do males have a specialized doctor, just like women have Gynecologists?
Answer
There are urologists that tend to see men for issues like prostate, incontinence, impotence, kidney stones, cancer treatment, vasectomies, vasectomy reversals, or trauma to the urinary system, but no, men do not see a specialized doctor every year like women, because they do not use hormonal birth control (pills & shots) or give birth.
