Abstract
The Andrology Working Group of the Society of Urological Surgery in Turkiye was established to address the lack of a formal andrology subspecialty in Turkiye and to advance male reproductive and sexual health. With a youth-driven approach-where young professionals play a leading role in organizing educational programs, conducting research, and contributing to advancements in clinical practice-the group fosters collaboration in key subspecialties, including male infertility, erectile dysfunction, and ejaculation disorders. By bridging academic gaps and supporting young professionals, the group plays a pivotal role in shaping the future of andrology in Turkiye. Notably, the group has facilitated over 25 national and international training programs and contributed 14 peer-reviewed publications, directly impacting andrology education and clinical practice in the region.
