Urology is the field of medicine that focuses on the
urinary tracts of males and females, and on the reproductive
system of males. In men, the urinary system overlaps with the
reproductive system, and in women the urinary tract opens into the
vulva. In both sexes, the urinary and reproductive tracts are
close together, and disorders of one often affect the other. The
organs covered by urology include the
kidneys,
ureters,
urinary bladder,
urethra, and the male reproductive organs (testes,
epididymis,
vas deferens,
seminal vesicles,
prostate and
penis).
Other subfields of urology include urologic oncology, stone
disease,
voiding dysfunction,
pediatric urology,
sexual dysfunction and male
infertility.Urology is closely related to the medical fields
of
nephrology,
andrology,
gynaecology,
proctology and
oncology.
A hernia is a
protrusion of a
tissue, structure, or part of an organ through the muscular
tissue or the
membrane by which it is normally contained. The hernia has 3
parts: the orifice through which it herniates, the
hernial sac, and its contents

A sexually transmitted disease (STD) is an
illness caused by an infectious pathogen that has a significant
probability of transmission between
humans
by means of
sexual contact, including
vaginal intercourse,
oral sex, and
anal sex. Increasingly, the term sexually transmitted
infection (STI) is used, as it has a broader range of
meaning; a person may be infected, and may potentially
infect others, without showing signs of disease. In
addition, "disease" seems to have much more of a negative
connotation than "infection." Some STIs can also be transmitted
via the needles used in
IV drug use, as well as through
childbirth or
breastfeeding. Sexually transmitted diseases have been
well-known for hundreds of years.
