Prostate Diseases
The prostate gland is a vital part of the male reproductive and urinary systems. Any dysfunction directly impacts a man’s daily routine, sleep quality, and self-confidence. At the clinic of Prof. Dr. Ahmed Al-Kandari, Consultant Urologist and Andrologist in Kuwait, we offer an integrated approach to diagnosing and treating all prostate conditions using the latest minimally invasive technologies and advanced medical therapies.
The Importance of Regular Screening
Prostate health changes with age, particularly after 50 (and in some cases, 40). Early diagnosis at our clinic aims to:
Differentiate between Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) and early-stage prostate cancer.
Prevent severe complications, such as kidney failure resulting from urinary tract obstruction.
Avoid sudden urinary retention that may require emergency catheterization.
Prostate Conditions We Treat
1. Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH)
The most common condition in aging men. We offer multiple tailored options:
Medical Management: Utilizing the latest medications to relax bladder muscles or shrink the prostate.
Rezum Therapy: A minimally invasive water vapor therapy that treats enlargement in minutes without traditional surgery, preserving sexual function.
Laser Prostatectomy (HoLEP / Green Light): These are among Dr. Al-Kandari’s core surgical specialties, allowing for the removal of enlarged tissue with minimal bleeding and rapid recovery.
Laparoscopic or Robotic Surgery: For cases involving extreme prostate enlargement.
2. Prostatitis (Prostate Inflammation)
Whether acute or chronic, inflammation causes pelvic pain and urinary difficulty. We provide:
Precise testing of urine and prostatic secretions to identify specific bacteria.
Intensive treatment protocols including targeted antibiotics and supportive therapies to prevent recurrence.
3. Early Detection of Prostate Cancer
We follow a strict screening protocol through:
PSA (Prostate-Specific Antigen) blood testing.
Digital Rectal Examination (DRE).
Advanced Transrectal Ultrasound (TRUS).
Coordination for targeted biopsies if necessary to ensure a definitive diagnosis.
Diagnostic Excellence at Our Clinic
We follow a precise diagnostic pathway:
IPSS Assessment: An international scoring system to evaluate symptom severity.
Uroflowmetry: To measure the strength of the urinary stream and degree of obstruction.
Post-Void Residual (PVR) Ultrasound: To ensure the bladder empties completely.
Flexible Cystoscopy: To visualize the prostate’s internal structure and its impact on the urethra.
Why Choose Dr. Ahmed Al-Kandari for Prostate Care?
Surgical Precision: Extensive experience in complex laser and endoscopic prostate procedures.
Preserving Vital Functions: A primary focus on improving urinary flow while strictly preserving sexual potency and urinary continence.
Cutting-Edge Technology: Availability of Rezum and advanced lasers that eliminate the need for traditional open surgery.
Close Post-Operative Care: Dedicated follow-up to ensure clinical stability and a quick return to normal activities.
Symptoms You Should Not Ignore

Weak or interrupted urinary stream.
Sudden, urgent need to urinate.
Frequent nighttime urination (Nocturia).
A feeling that the bladder is not completely empty.
Blood in the urine or semen.
