Now let’s take a look at why this problem arises and what is the cause and cure of this problem. 

Why Do I Need to Force Myself to Pee?

You might ask this question while you are facing this problem. Well, there are certain reasons why you need to force yourself to pee. The first and foremost reason for this is you are drinking less water, and your body is dehydrated. This problem is quite common nowadays, where people are drinking less water than what they usually need to consume. Drinking less water can result in your body drying out, where you don’t produce much urine. Peeing is important as it cleans one’s body and removes toxins from the body. You already need to drink 4-5ltrs of water in a day to keep your body hydrated and produce urine. 

The next reason might be you are forcing yourself to pee for some reason. Maybe you need to take out a urine sample for your doctor to test, and in that case, you don’t need to worry much. As you are not always entitled to pee, and you can try any of these methods to work on.

The next reason might be you have developed a condition which is known as neurogenic bladder. This generally happens after surgery or stuffs like that. Here, in this case, you need to force, or you need to make yourself pee. As this condition sometimes interferes with the normal nerve signaling process and makes it difficult for your nerves to send signals from your bladder to the brain. And this is how the process works. So as the signals are not sent properly, the body can’t figure out whether to release urine or not. If you are going through this condition and if it persists, then you need to see a doctor as it is dangerous to hold in urine. 

Now moving on to the next condition, where you get a constant urge to pee. This is not normal either, as nothing is normal when it happens in larger motions. It is not normal if you don’t get the urge to pee. Also, if you get the frequent urge to pee, this is not normal either. In both cases, there are some reasons why this kind of problem arrives. Now let’s talk about the frequent urge and if you keep getting that. 

What are the general Benefits of Peeing?

Let’s now talk about the benefits of peeing. As we all know, Peeing is beneficial, and if this doesn’t happen properly, there are a few complications that you might face in the future. 

Here are some of the benefits of peeing: –

• as you all know, kidneys filter the waste from the blood and produce urine. It is important to pee to remove and excrete all the waste products and toxins from your body. 
• to get rid of the extra water that your body doesn’t need. 
• It generally sucks up all the nutrients and minerals from the water, and our body absorbs it. The extra water is excreted. 

Why Do I Feel Like I Need to Pee, Right After Peeing? 

This condition sometimes happens for various reasons, and here I’m sharing some reasons to make you aware of the situation. 

The feeling is quite distracting and annoying when right after peeing, you feel like you have to pee again. It doesn’t let you work properly, sleep properly or do anything properly. The condition, after some time, becomes unbearable, and you like to seek help from somewhere. 

Well, one of the main reasons is UTI (Urinary Tract Infection). This is one of the reasons why you are facing this problem. 

UTI (Urinary Tract Infection)

What is UTI? This is mostly caused when a bacteria named E.coli comes into your genital contact. This bacteria primarily spread from the anal region, and as it is easy for the bacteria to get inside your genital area from the anus, you need to be extra careful to avoid this problem further. 

There are a few common causes why this problem comes, and some of them include these –

• If you hold back your pee
• Poor hygiene
• sexual intercourse
• use of a catheter
• diabetes 

These are some of the vital causes of UTIs. 

How to prevent UTI?

Sharing some points that can help you prevent UTI and for sure these will work for you. These can help you easily get rid of UTIs if you can maintain these regularly and religiously. 

• Drink at least 8-10 glasses of water every day, as this is required to keep you hydrated. 
• Pee whenever you have to pee rather than holding your pee, as this is quite dangerous and leads to serious health hazards. 
• Always carry a pee spray if you are a woman to ensure you have bacteria-free toilet seats in public toilets. 
• After pooping, constantly wipe it from front to back without dragging it from back to front. As this will help the bacteria from your poop to pop inside your genital area. 
• Clean your genital area after every time you pee is essential. If you can’t do that, at least clean it twice a day. 
• Wear cotton panties instead of wearing silk and satin. 
• avoid douching. 

When you need to consult a doctor?

You need to immediately consult a doctor if you have been facing this problem for a long time and the following signs show up as well. You need to consult a doctor in that case immediately. There are some significant symptoms of UTI that you cannot, and instead, you should not ignore. 

These are the signs:-

• If you notice blood is coming out of your urine
• if you notice a peculiar and foul smell in your urine
• pain in the lower abdomen while you pee or while you have to pee
• frequent urge to pee, but every time you sit, there are just a few drops of pee coming out. 

If you see a doctor, the doctor will prescribe you a series of medicines, and if you take that and follow the tips that I’ve mentioned above, you can easily get rid of this UTI problem. 

Problems of an Overactive Bladder

This is another problem that people face nowadays. Now, what is the problem of an Overactive Bladder? Well, your bladder has the capability to hold two cups of water for a period of time. Once it’s full, you get the alarm and the urge to urinate, and that’s how things work. But for some people, this is not the case if the person is suffering from problems of an overactive bladder. 

In this case, the person cannot control the urge to urinate and when to urinate, and where to urinate. This situation makes the person urinate wherever making it a serious problem. 

This condition also occurs with a neurological problem when the brain receives wrong signals from the bladder. According to that signal, the bladder squeezes without any warning, and they need to run to the bathroom quite frequently, or they might leak urine as well. 

This is a common problem, and yeah, you can lower the symptoms, and you can also cure this problem to an extent. There are certain symptoms of an overactive bladder, and let’s go through the symptoms as it is important –

• The person will urinate a lot of times and more than ten times a day. He/she will feel a sudden urge to pee all of a sudden and will pee quite frequently. 
• They would face problem sleeping peacefully as they will wake up several times in the night to pee. 
• Whenever he/she would like to urinate, they’d leak, and they lack the factor to control urine. To an extent where it is uncontrollable. 
• this is the main symptom where even after urinating, they feel like they still need to go cause they can’t empty their bladder all at once. So they’d likely urinate again and again. 

Well, the second last symptom might not be the same for everyone, or you might now experience this. As an overactive bladder is divided into two types. One is • Dry, and the other is • Wet. According to urologist sources, most people have dry symptoms where they experience all the symptoms except the leaking part. In the case of the wet condition, the person will have a leaking bladder where he has no self-control and will fail to control the urge to pee. 

Reasons why you are peeing all the time 

There are some other reasons as well, and that is causing you to pee frequently. The reasons are –

• Diabetes
• urinary incontinence
• you are nervous
• you have a comparatively small bladder 
• If you have a coffee addiction and you are a bean head 
• you drink too much water

Why should you Pee after having sexual intercourse?

Previously we talked about UTIs and the causes of UTIs as well. There was a point where I mentioned sexual intercourse. Well, this is more likely for women to follow than men. Generally, women get UTIs more than men, and they are more likely not to get UTIs their whole life. As women have smaller urethra than men, bacteria can easily reach the bladder than they can reach in the case of men. 

Peeing right after you have sex can flush out the bacteria that remain down there and can quickly reduce your chance of having a UTI. 

This is the only reason why people suggest that peeing after sex is good. Though a lot of people believe it can prevent pregnancy but honestly, it is just a myth. 

Benefits of Peeing in the Shower

Next comes the benefits that you get from peeing in the shower. You are surprised, right? Yeah, it is quite common for you to get surprised as we all tend to do that naturally without thinking much about it, but it’s actually good for the environment and our planet as well. You might think this is gross, but I’m talking about the shower and not peeing in a tub. Some of the benefits are it does save a bit of your water bill. Generally, you take a minimum of 5 gallons of water to flush the toilet, and when you pee in the shower, it naturally washes away. The second reason is the fungus on your foot will disappear as well. Urine can let go of all the fungus as pee has anti-fungal properties.
