The Andrology Centre Zurich was founded in 1989 and has been part of the Uroviva network since 2018.
What does andrology involve?
Andrology is a special field of medicine that deals with the reproductive functions of men and their disorders. One could view andrology as the male equivalent of gynaecology. Asking questions about sexual problems and infertility is still taboo and often excluded from any discussion. But only when the causes of infertility are known, can fears and social prejudices subside.
The Zurich Andrology Centre provides brief and easy-to-understand information on all men's health issues and the current trends and developments in medicine.
