What is the Urogenital System? And how does it look with Bioresonance testing?
When talking about the results with a CBH Energetics bioresonance Full Scan, the Urogenital System consists of the kidneys, the bladder, and your reproductive organs. The Urogenital System, is also known as the genitourinary system, and all parts all work together in harmony to remove waste from the body and facilitate reproduction.
The Urogenital System consists of two main components – the urinary system and the reproductive system. Although these systems have distinct functions, they share common structures and work together to maintain your body’s homeostasis.
If you suffer from UTI’s (urinary tract infections) or infertility, then you know what it is like to have a Urogenital System that is out of balance.
This post aims to answer the question, “What is the Urogenital System?” We’ll talk about its role in the human body, its components, its stressors, and give you some tips and takeaways to keep your Urogenital System balanced.
What is the Urogenital System and it’s Importance?
The Urogenital System’s primary function is to ensure the removal of waste and toxins from your body. Through the process of urination, it helps maintain the body’s electrolyte balance and blood pressure. Moreover, it plays a significant part in the reproductive process. The organs involved in this system not only facilitate the creation of life but also play a role in sexual pleasure, making its importance undeniable.
But the role of the Urogenital System goes beyond these basic functions. It’s a vital player in maintaining the body’s overall homeostasis, or balance. To do this we need a stable internal environment. This balance is important for your body’s cells to function correctly, and any disturbance can lead to health issues.
In addition, the urogenital system also plays a role in producing hormones. For instance, the kidneys (part of the urogenital system) produce erythropoietin, a hormone that stimulates the production of red blood cells. The reproductive organs, such as the ovaries and testes, produce sex hormones that govern secondary sexual characteristics and influence behaviors.
What is the Urogenital System and it’s Components?
The Urinary System
This system is primarily responsible for waste elimination and includes organs such as the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra. The kidneys filter the blood to remove waste and extra fluid, which then becomes urine. This urine is transported to the bladder through the ureters, and when the bladder is full, the urine is expelled from the body through the urethra.
The Reproductive System
This is responsible for creating life. In males, it consists of the testes, vas deferens, seminal vesicles, prostate gland, and penis. The testes produce sperm, which is transported through the vas deferens during ejaculation. The seminal vesicles and the prostate gland add fluids to nourish and transport the sperm. In females, the reproductive system includes the ovaries, fallopian tubes, uterus, and vagina. The ovaries produce eggs, which are fertilized by sperm in the fallopian tubes. The fertilized egg then implants itself in the uterus, where it develops into a fetus.

What is the Urogenital System and it’s Stressors?
Like any other system in the body, the urogenital system can also be afflicted with various health issues. These can range from those common UTI’s to more severe conditions like kidney disease or prostate cancer.
Urinary tract infections are one of the most common ailments affecting the urogenital system. These infections occur when bacteria enter the urinary tract, leading to symptoms like frequent urination, pain during urination, and lower abdominal pain. If left untreated, UTIs can lead to more severe complications like kidney infections.
UTI’s are more common in women than men (1)
Frequent strains of bacteria that resonate on a bioenergetic test include E. coli (escherichia coli), proteus mirabilis, and some forms of mycoplasma. There are many forms of mycoplasma, that also affect the Respiratory System.
Kidney stress, on the other hand, may show up as part of challenged detoxification processes, especially if certain chemicals or heavy metals like cadmium are energetically resonating. Stress in the kidneys may also come from alcohol, mold and mycotoxins, or dehydration.
While we have tested clients with chronic kidney disease, which is a long-term condition where the kidneys’ function gradually decreases over time, we do not diagnose or treat health conditions. Many times balancing remedies are gentle, and homeopathic, supporting the body’s organ systems.
What is the Urogenital System in Terms of Reproductive Health?
In terms of reproductive health, there can be so many stressors. For women, the connection to ovarian cysts and high estrogen levels can be important. Many times these cysts are not causing any symptoms. Hormone imbalances, and even some microbes can cause cysts to form.
Hypothyroidism can also be linked to ovarian cysts which would fall into the bioenergetic category of Urogenital stress (2)
Stressors for women in the Urogenital System includes connections to endometriosis as well. There has been some scientific research behind endometriosis and parasites (3).
What about stress in the Urogenital System for men? Many men have an enlarged prostate which can cause frequent urges to urinate, increased urination at night, and the inability to empty the bladder.
Our bioenergetic certification course notes that there is a correlation between DHT or dihydrotestosterone, and enlarged prostate, along with elevated estrogen and enlarged prostate.
Potential toxins that may relate to prostrate stress include many different bacteria, chemicals, metals, and Candida.
Top Takeaways for Urogenital System Health
Maintaining a healthy Urogenital System starts with practicing good hygiene. Good personal hygiene, especially in the genital area, can help prevent infections. This includes properly cleaning the area, using unscented hygiene products to avoid irritation, and safe sexual practices to prevent sexually transmitted infections.
Note that many feminine hygiene products contain chemicals that are endocrine disruptors, and are irritating to the Urogenital System. Toilet paper is even irritating for the Integumentary System, which involves skin. The skin of this area is very delicate.
Aging, and other factors like labor and delivery, can bring on urinary incontinence. This can be related to loss of collagen, and to prostate enlargement.
Furthermore, a diet high in salt might stress the kidneys, while a diet low in calcium can increase the risk of kidney stones. What?
Yep, according to Yale Medicine, low calcium may be a factor in kidney stone development.
Regular physical activity has been shown to reduce the risk of conditions like erectile dysfunction. This is probably due to the circulation support that happens with cardiovascular exercise! Regular check-ups and screenings, especially as you get older, can help detect any potential issues early, increasing the chances of successful balancing.
We can’t forget the immense benefits of hydration for the Urogenital System!
Despite its importance, there are several common misunderstandings about the Urogenital System. One common misconception is that urinary incontinence is a normal part of aging. While it’s true that the risk of incontinence increases with age, it can be tied to changes in the Nervous System, and tissues that have collagen and estrogen receptors.
Another misconception is that all men will eventually develop prostate problems. While the risk of problems like benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostate cancer does increase with age, not all men will experience these issues. Regular screenings and a healthy lifestyle can help reduce the risk.
Similarly, many people believe that painful periods are normal. While it’s common to experience some discomfort during menstruation, excessive pain can be a sign of conditions like endometriosis or uterine fibroids.
The urogenital system is a complex and vital part of our bodies, playing a central role in waste elimination, reproduction, and maintaining our body’s homeostasis. While it can be affected by environmental toxins and aging, many of these can be cleared through herbal supports and homeopathy.
Emotional support can help the Urogenital System as well, as there are some Traditional Chinese Medicine links organs of this system. The bladder and the kidney are linked to elements of fear. In this TCM philosophy, the kidney is also connected to the lungs in regulation of water.
