Male sounds are shaped differently than female sounds. Obviously, male sounds being longer. They are used to dilate the urethra in order to facilitate the passage of stones or perhaps JJ stents etc. They come in different diameters ie..18FR, 20FR etc. Hope this helps.

Classification of Severity of Hirsutism
In 1961 Ferriman-Galwey published studies on 430 Caucasian women between the ages of 15-74 years based on patients seen in a hospital clinic. The system is based on 11 body sites with a severity score of 0 to 5 for the upper lip, chin, lower back, upper abdomen, arms, forearms, thigh and leg.
Score for the upper lip and chinGrade 1 - a few hairs at the outer part of the upper lip/few scattered hairs on the chin
Grade 2 - small moustache at the outer margins of the upper lip/scattered hair with a small concentration on the chin
Grade 3 -moustache extending halfway from the outer margin of the upper lip/light complete coverage of the chin
Grade 4 -moustache on the entire upper lip/heavy growth on the entire chin

"There was a mild bladder neck contracture that we dilated with male sounds."
Male sounds? Is this correct? I googled it and saw something about male sounds, but it wasn't enough to make me feel comfortable leaving it in the sentence. Is that correct?

Male GU exam s/l something-taryx
Subject: Male GU exam s/l something-taryx
In the male GU physical exam, the doctor says: "Penis normal. Testes normal. _____ normal." I can't understand the first part of what he says, but the rest of it sounds like it ends in "ricks" or "ryx." What could it be? I could leave a blank, but I'm kinda curious....
Any help would be appreciated. (And you don't even have to tell me how you know !)
