Consultation with a pediatric urologist is necessary not only in the case of pronounced symptoms, but also for preventive purposes. A number of urological problems and deviations in the development of the baby's genitourinary system can be congenital, therefore, preventive consultations with a specialist are carried out in the first months of a child's life. Most of the congenital anomalies and malformations of the genitourinary system are successfully corrected in childhood.
Some urological diseases can develop in children during their life for various reasons: infection, complications after the flu, hypothermia, and more. Often, the disease is asymptomatic and parents may not immediately notice "problems" in the baby's health. Urological diseases not diagnosed and not promptly cured in childhood can negatively affect the quality of life in adulthood.

Considerable part of urologic diseases are congenital. Developmental pathologies of the urogenital system can develop in the mother’s womb. Prenatal diagnostics ultrasonographer will notice such pathologies, first of all. Besides, pathologies of male and female genitalia can manifest at the age of 4 to 5 years, and even later, at the age of 12–15 years.
At the first scheduled examination, a pediatric urologist will advise parents on how to properly carry out hygienic procedures for the genitals, as well as tell about the peculiarities of the development of the genitourinary system and what problems parents need to pay attention to. Proper intimate hygiene of a child is the prevention of the development of urological diseases, since improper care can lead to various diseases, such as balanoposthitis in boys, as well as cystitis and other diseases in girls.
A child whose parents and/or close relatives have suffered from diseases of urinary bladder and kidneys need a consultation by a pediatric urologist, because some serious pathologies may be hereditary.
The most common reasons for contacting a pediatric urologist are changes in urine: parents may notice a cloudy sediment, a change in color from yellow to "dark beer", an unpleasant odor. Disorders of urination, pain during urination, in the lower abdomen, in the lower back, and girls may have discharge from the external genital organs, will "tell" about problems with the kidneys and the bladder.
