Get ready to raise awareness and support for urological health this September, as we celebrate Urology Awareness Month! This month-long observance was established in 1992 by the American Urological Association to educate the public about the importance of urological health and promote early detection and treatment of urological issues. From kidney stones to prostate cancer, there are many common conditions that fall under the umbrella of urology, making it an important field of medicine. Let's join together and spread knowledge and resources to help improve overall urological wellness for ourselves and our loved ones.
