Houston Men's Health Specialists

Screening needs vary by age, family history, and risk. Common checks include blood pressure, cholesterol, diabetes risk, colorectal cancer screening, and prostate cancer discussions. Many men start prostate risk discussions around ages 45–50 (earlier if high risk). Your Houston provider will personalize a plan. 

Your clinician may review symptoms, order a PSA blood test if appropriate, and—when indicated—perform a brief digital rectal exam to assess the prostate. It’s quick, usually mildly uncomfortable, and helps guide the next steps if anything seems off. 

Start with primary care for first-line evaluation and labs. See a urologist if you have persistent ED, frequent urination, weak stream, blood in urine, testicular pain, fertility concerns, or if your primary care provider recommends specialty care. We coordinate both under one Houston network.

A no-scalpel vasectomy uses a tiny puncture instead of an incision to access the vas deferens. Many men report less discomfort and faster recovery compared with traditional methods. It’s intended as permanent birth control and should be chosen only if you’re confident you’re done having children. 

Most men return to light activity within 24–48 hours and normal routines in a few days. Avoid strenuous exercise for about a week. You’ll need alternative contraception until a post-procedure semen analysis confirms you’re sperm-free.

No. A vasectomy blocks sperm, not hormones. Testosterone levels, erections, and the amount of semen typically stay the same. If you notice new symptoms after a procedure, schedule a follow-up to rule out other causes. 

Common signs of low-T include low energy, reduced libido, difficulty building muscle, mood changes, and brain fog. Diagnosis is based on symptoms plus blood tests. Treatment options may include lifestyle changes and testosterone therapy, monitored by our clinicians to balance benefits and risks.

GLP-1s may help qualifying patients with obesity or weight-related conditions. They’re prescribed after a medical evaluation and paired with nutrition and activity changes. Side effects and coverage vary; our team reviews eligibility, safety, and insurance options with you.

Peptide therapy uses short chains of amino acids under clinician guidance to target goals like energy, recovery, body composition, and sexual wellness. Not all peptides are appropriate for every patient; we’ll review your health history, goals, and evidence to decide safely. 

Many clinicians recommend regular self-checks to note changes in size, lumps, or pain. The best time is after a warm shower. Report anything new promptly. Our urology team can examine, order imaging if needed, and guide the next steps.
