"Getting wet" can refer to different contexts, specifically immersion in water or sexual arousal/activity. The recommendation to pee depends on the context.
The urethra. As a result there's a sphincter that closes involuntarily when you're sexually aroused. Put another way, you have a circle of muscles that hold your bladder closed all the time and that circle isn't under your control. It senses when you're aroused and stops you from peeing.
The "21-second pee rule" comes from a scientific study showing most mammals over about 3 kg (6.6 lbs) empty their bladders in roughly 21 seconds, a phenomenon explained by physics where longer, wider urethras in larger animals use gravity to maintain a similar flow rate to smaller ones, and it serves as a loose benchmark for human bladder health; significantly shorter or longer times can signal issues like overactive bladder or holding it too long.
Your body suddenly releases sexual tension that built up during the first two phases of the sexual response cycle. Heart rate, blood pressure and breathing rate increase. Hormones are released into your bloodstream.
Pee is the power washer for the urethra (a tube where pee comes out of your body). If you pee after sex, germs in your urethra get the flush before they can cause a urinary tract infection (UTI). “When you urinate, anything that was trying to get to the bladder gets pushed out with the urine,” explains Dr. Zanotti.
Urination on orgasm is often caused by a phenomenon known as 'urge incontinence'. Orgasms can cause the surrounding bladder muscles (known as detrusor muscles) to spasm, causing you to leak as contractions put additional pressure on your bladder.
Peeing after penetrative or oral sex can help reduce your risk for a utinary tract infection, UTI. UTI occur when bacteria enters your utinary tract, typically through your urethra and travels to your bladder. Peeing after sex can help remove bacteria from the uthera and reduce your risk of a UTI.
As far as volume goes, it can vary considerably, with a usual range of between about a half an ounce to more than 3-1/2 ounces. The color is most frequently described as “clear as water”4.
Girls know they've had an orgasm through intense physical sensations like powerful, rhythmic pelvic muscle contractions, increased heart rate, rapid breathing, flushing, and a feeling of intense pleasure or release, often described as a wave, though experiences vary greatly, with some having more intense physical signs and others a quieter internal feeling.
Conclusions. The present data based on ultrasonographic bladder monitoring and biochemical analyses indicate that squirting is essentially the involuntary emission of urine during sexual activity, although a marginal contribution of prostatic secretions to the emitted fluid often exists.
Here's why urination can feel pleasurable, and sometimes even “orgasmic”: Tension and Release: As your bladder fills to capacity, your urge to go increases—causing real, physical tension. Your pelvic floor muscles tighten to prevent leakage, and just like during sexual arousal or climax, that tension builds up.
Your menstrual cycle
Goje says. Thick, white discharge usually happens between your period and ovulation. The texture could be sticky and paste-like or creamy, almost like the texture of yogurt.
Female ejaculation is characterized as an expulsion of fluid from the Skene's gland at the lower end of the urethra during or before an orgasm.
If you release fluid during sex, it could be pee. But you might've actually ejaculated or “squirted” instead (or both!). Female ejaculation involves leaking a small amount of milky fluid, quite similar to male semen. This fluid is produced by the Skene's glands next to the “G-spot” inside the vagina.
Change in cervical mucus: Some women notice a change in their cervical mucus after ovulation, which could be a sign that sperm went inside the body. Mild cramping or spotting: Some women experience mild cramping (Mittelschmerz) or light spotting after ovulation, which could be a sign of implantation.
This increased blood flow causes your vagina to produce more lubricating fluid – this is often called 'getting wet' – a main telltale physical sign of female arousal. Your muscles will continue tightening and your clitoris will feel very sensitive. Your breathing and heart rate will also continue to increase.
There is no way to tell if a woman has had an orgasm without asking. Some people make noises during an orgasm, while others are silent. Some flush or sweat after an orgasm, but others do not. A person who wants to know if their partner has had an orgasm can ask without being confrontational.
Activation of climax occurs when the synaptic integration of the excitatory and inhibitory inputs from supraspinal sites and from peripheral inputs to the spinal cord reaches a threshold.
During sex, bacteria can enter your urethra, raising your chances of getting an infection. This is why it's important to always pee after sex as peeing flushes out the germs. Having sex with a full bladder also increases your chances of developing stress urinary incontinence.
Retrograde ejaculation. Retrograde ejaculation occurs when semen which would be ejaculated via the urethra is redirected to the urinary bladder. Normally, the sphincter of the bladder contracts before ejaculation, inhibiting urination and preventing a reflux of semen into the bladder.
You may also pass urine during sex, particularly when you reach orgasm. This type of incontinence often occurs as part of a group of symptoms called overactive bladder syndrome, which is when the bladder muscle is more active than usual.
What is it exactly? During sex, some people with vulvas experience a release of fluid during arousal or orgasm; otherwise known as female ejaculation. Research has found that there are 2 types of female ejaculation fluid, ejaculatory fluid and squirting fluid.
Many women sometimes release a drop or two of a thick white fluid. This can be released any time when a woman is aroused. A small percentage of women sometimes release a large (ounces or 100s of ml) quantity of clear fluid, before or during orgasm.
It's important to remember that cramping after orgasm or sex may be normal as the muscles contract, but should be short-lived and go away. "If it persists, it may indicate that there is something wrong," says Dr. Orbuch.
