Pee after sex, if you can.

NSFW

If you're able to urinate after sex, especially PIV or topping anal sex, do it. It reduces the chances of urinary tract infections and yeast infections, as well as the spread of any STD one partner or the other may have. This is just good practice for health and safety.

I know you’re not getting a lot of engagement with most of these posts, and I have no idea what your qualifications are, but I think this is a great idea. Keep it up. (pun intended)

Thanks. I'm just pumping these out until I'm spent. I'm not any kind of expert, I'm just going off my personal experience and research.

As a dude that has had both at the same time, I wish I knew this earlier. Nowadays I'm so cautious about it that I opt for a shower immediately after as well. No waiting around.

Yes! I've heard this advice many times as a woman since our urethras are shorter so more prone to UTIs after sex, but men should try to pee as well. It's good practice for all the genders!

I should make a post about this, and I should research it to confirm, but I heard that female urethras aren't just shorter, but they're smooth inside, whereas male ones twist on the inside so that the urine coats the whole thing as it goes through, which also reduces UTI risk.

That's a helluva lot of detail but I didn't find any confirmation of what I thought. Maybe it's a myth, I'll have to look into it soon.

This goes for any kind of post-orgasm as well. If you masturbate, make sure to pee afterwards!

I always pee after. As a man it just seems right. Clean the pipes so to speak. I also have a minor issue where it doesn't clear everything after sex, i usually have to massage some out afterwards then pee to ensure its clear and clean.
