Steps to Pee Quietly

Choose Your Location Wisely:

Control the Stream:

- Wash Hands: Wash your hands thoroughly, because hygiene is important.

Consider a Portable Urination Device:
- Practice at Home: Practice to avoid spills in public and feel more comfortable.
Additional Tips
- Run the Tap: If you're in a public restroom, running the tap before and during can help mask the sound.
By following these steps, you can minimize the noise associated with urination and maintain a greater sense of privacy and discretion.
