But experts say that men should not rush to urinate after sex, otherwise it will cause damage to the prostate. Because the male urethra is long and curved, the resistance to urine passing through is large and takes a long time.

Just after sexual intercourse, the congestion of the corpus cavernosum of the penis has not subsided, and the contraction of the urethral sphincter and detrusor has not yet been eliminated, which causes high urethral resistance, making it difficult to urinate, or even inability to urinate. If you rush to urinate at this time, the pressure in the urethra will increase, and the urine containing bacteria and metabolic waste will flow back into the prostate. If this happens for a long time, it can easily lead to prostatitis.

Experts suggest that it is best for men to rest for 5 to 10 minutes after ejaculation, and then urinate after the congestion disappears.

It should be reminded that if symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency, and painful urination occur after sex, it may be a urinary system infection, and you should go to the hospital in time.
