Why Should You Pee After Sex? Three Reasons Explained

   Why do women’s health and hygiene guides tell you to pee after sex? In this brief article, we’ll explain what peeing after sex has to do with UTIs and your bladder.

It’s a good idea to always pee after sex. It’s especially beneficial for women’s health. Here are a few reasons why.

A urinary tract infection (UTI) is an infection that occurs in any area of the urinary system, such as the bladder, urethra, or kidneys. An infection of the urinary tract generally occurs when bacteria gets into your urinary tract through your urethra and starts multiplying in your bladder. If your urinary tract’s natural defenses fail, bacteria can grow and cause an infection.

What are the risk factors for urinary tract infections?

UTIs occur more commonly in women. Some particular things that increase women’s risk of contracting UTIs include:

  • Female anatomy — Women’s urethras are shorter than men’s. This reduces the distance that bacteria have to travel to enter the bladder.
  • Certain kinds of birth control — Women who use diaphragms and/or spermicidal agents for birth control have an increased risk of contracting a UTI.
  • Sexual activity — The risk of developing a UTI is greater in women who are sexually active than women who aren’t. Your risk is also increased if you have a new sex partner.
  • Menopause — The reduced level of estrogen hormone after menopause causes urinary tract changes, making you more prone to infection.
