  • Summary

    In this chapter, we will review how men’s health has evolved into a distinct subspecialty of medicine and changed over the past two decades. There exists a large disparity between men and women when it comes to health. However, as the drivers for men seeking health care are changing, the urologist is in a unique position to help quarterback men’s health initiatives. Men’s health advocacy and the creation of men’s health centers are on the rise. Areas of advancement in the field include prostate cancer diagnosis and treatment, erectile dysfunction therapies, surgical treatment for chronic testicular pain, and new approaches to male factor infertility. The burgeoning field of men’s health has seen many advancements in the past two decades and will continue to make significant gains in the years to come.
