Urology surgical procedure: Urethral Calibration (Urethral Stricture Diagnosis and Treatment)

Urethral calibration is a short, outpatient procedure that is designed to diagnose and treat urethral strictures. The procedure is usually painless and takes 10-15 minutes.

A narrowed urethra can cause various problems such as:

Difficulty urinating
Causing recurrent inflammation of the lower urinary tract
Weak urine stream
Frequent urination
Urinary incontinence
Pain when urinating

How does the procedure work?
It is performed in the supine position, after disinfection of the urethra and application of numbing gel. A thin calibration probe is inserted into the urethra and gradually dilated to widen the narrowed portion.

After the procedure, it is common to experience mild burning and irritation of the urethra, which subsides within a few days.

I've already used services of more specialists in Atoda Medical and every time I was satisfied with high quality service and very pleasant approach. All the same I can say about the nurses and receptionists who were always willing and quick to respond to any of my requests.
