What Is an Andrologist?

An andrologist is a medical specialist focused exclusively on male reproductive health, sexual function, and hormonal wellness — essentially the male equivalent of a gynecologist. While general urologists treat a broad range of urinary and kidney conditions affecting both men and women, andrologists concentrate specifically on complex male reproductive health issues requiring specialized expertise.

Andrology encompasses male fertility evaluation and treatment, erectile dysfunction management, testosterone optimization, sexual dysfunction therapy, and advanced microsurgical procedures. This specialized field requires extensive additional training beyond general urology, focusing on the intricate relationships between male hormones, sexual function, and reproductive capability.

Dr. Houman’s fellowship training in Men’s Sexual and Reproductive Health at Cedars-Sinai represents the pinnacle of andrology education, providing him with advanced expertise in microsurgical techniques, complex fertility procedures, and cutting-edge treatments for male sexual dysfunction.
