When it comes to men’s health, there are some problems too prevalent to be ignored—particularly after age 50. Although most men are accustomed to basic blood work, ECGs, and health checkups, there is one less familiar but vital diagnostic procedure that is often overlooked: the Uroflowmetry test.

At Hande Hospital, we’ve made this test a key part of our Senior Gentleman’s Health Package—a carefully designed preventive health check-up plan to keep ageing men ahead of potential health issues.

What is Uroflowmetry?

Uroflowmetry is an easy, painless test that measures the flow rate of urine when the patient urinates. The test shows how much urine is ejected, how quickly, and in how long a time. The data allow physicians to gauge how efficiently the bladder and urinary tract are working.

For men aged more than 50 years, it is particularly significant since prostate enlargement (Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia or BPH) increases with age. If left unmanaged, this may cause urinary retention, pain, infections, or even damage to the kidneys.

Why Every Man Over 50 Needs To Take This Test

Even if you feel relatively healthy, small urinary pattern changes can be the first signs of larger problems. Signs such as:

• Weak or slow stream of urine
• Frequent need to urinate, particularly at night
• Inability to start or stop urinating
• Sensation that the bladder is not completely emptied

… could be ignored as a symptom of ageing, but might be indicative of underlying prostate or urinary problems.

Uroflowmetry ensures that such problems are detected early enough, sometimes even before they become symptomatic or serious. In conjunction with other important tests like Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA), ultrasound abdomen, renal function tests, ECG, and others—hand in hand as the Senior Gentleman’s Package at Hande Hospital—you have the complete and clear picture of your health.

A Balanced Approach at Hande Hospital

At Hande Hospital, we’re serious about men’s health. Our Senior Gentleman’s Health Package has been carefully designed to concentrate on areas commonly impacted by ageing, including cardiovascular health, prostate health, metabolism, and kidney function.

Here’s what the package usually comprises:

• Blood sugar and lipid profile
• Liver and kidney function tests
• PSA (for prostate health)
• ECG and chest X-ray
• Ultrasound of abdomen & pelvis
• Uroflowmetry
• Specialist consultation and report review

Our staff of experienced physicians, such as experienced urologists and general physicians, ensures that you receive personalized care and easy-to-understand explanations each step of the way.

Early Detection is the Best Protection

Most conditions that occur in men over 50 are curable—if detected in time. Preventive screening aims to not only detect disease, but to optimize quality of life, independence, and self-confidence as you grow older.
