Should Guys Pee After They Come?

Published in Sexual Health 1 min read

Peeing after sex isn't as crucial for men as it is for women, but it's generally a good practice.

While scientific evidence directly linking post-coital urination to UTI prevention in men is limited, there are reasons why it can be beneficial:

  • Urethral Cleansing: Urinating after ejaculation can help flush out any bacteria that may have entered the urethra during sexual activity. Though men have a longer urethra, making it less likely for bacteria to reach the bladder, it still provides a degree of protection.
  • Hygiene: It helps maintain overall hygiene in the genital area.
  • No Harm: There is no harm in adopting this practice.

In summary, while not strictly necessary for preventing UTIs in the same way it is for women, urinating after ejaculation can contribute to better hygiene for men.
