Uroflowmetry
Uroflowmetry – diagnosis of urination disorders
Uroflowmetry is a quick, painless and non-invasive test that assesses urine flow through the urethra. It helps in diagnosing, among others, prostatic hyperplasia, urethral strictures and bladder dysfunction. At Optima Clinic, we perform it in comfortable conditions, using modern equipment and full respect for the patient’s privacy.
Indications for uroflowmetry
The test is recommended primarily for patients reporting lower urinary tract symptoms, such as:
- weakened urine stream,
- frequent urge to urinate,
- difficulty in starting or ending micturition,
- a feeling of incomplete emptying of the bladder,
- intermittent or prolonged urination.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Do I need to prepare for the test?
Yes – approximately one hour before the test, you should drink a sufficient amount of fluids and come in with a feeling of pressure on your bladder. Your bladder should be full but not overflowing.
Is the examination painful?
No. Uroflowmetry is completely painless and involves urinating into a special device that resembles a regular toilet seat or funnel.
When will I know the result?
