Good urination habits are important for both men and women, men because of urination problems may cause prostatitis, urinary tract infections, women may also cause urinary tract infections because of holding urine and other reasons, bringing unnecessary trouble to life. The reason why women are more prone to urinary tract infections is because of the special anatomical location of the female perineum: the urethra is close to the vaginal opening and the anus, and the urethra is short, so bacteria can easily invade, plus the vulva will have more secretions and leucorrhea; there is also menstrual blood during menstruation, which is a good medium for bacteria to grow and multiply. Some women suffer from vaginal inflammation, which can also lead to recurrent urinary tract infections. Especially after menopause, middle-aged and elderly women are more prone to urinary tract infections because of changes in the internal environment and changes in the pH level of the vulva, which lack the inhibition of bacterial growth. The first thing that women should do to prevent this is to develop the habit of drinking more water and urinating more often, so that urine can be discharged smoothly, increasing the chances of flushing the urethra and playing the role of flushing bacteria with urine. The second thing is to develop the habit of not holding urine, because the pressure increases when the bladder is full, and if it is not discharged in time, the urine will flow back towards the ureter, bringing the bacteria that may have invaded to higher parts, causing infection in the upper urinary tract, and the longer the urine stays, the more bacteria multiply. Then there is the post-poo wipe the anus can be wiped from front to back to prevent the intestinal bacteria into the urethra, in addition to women should urinate as early as possible after intercourse. Men pay more attention to some of the details of life, such as the development of the correct urination habits, you can reduce the occurrence of many diseases. First, do not sit down immediately after urination. The male physiological structure is special, the urethra is long, after urination, the internal and external sphincter of the urethra will close, so that the prostate department of the urethra to form a closed cavity. The actual fact is that you can find a lot of people who are not able to get a good deal on a lot of things. The second is that older men can squat when they urinate. The actual fact is that you can find a series of muscle movements and related reflexes that can accelerate the elimination of intestinal waste, shorten the residence time of feces in the intestine, and reduce the role of intestinal absorption of carcinogens. In addition, elderly men in the night urination in order to avoid urinary syncope, should also take a squatting urination. Thirdly, do not hold urine. The incidence of bladder cancer is directly proportional to the time of urine retention in the bladder. This is because there is a chemical in urine that can cause cancer, and this substance will largely destroy the muscle fibers of the bladder, prompting it to become cancerous.
