Yeast infections

Pelvic pain

Bladder sensitivity

👉 Then it’s worth rethinking.

🛑 How to Break the Habit (Without Losing Convenience)

You don’t have to give up efficiency—just shift the routine:

🔁 Try This Instead:

Use the toilet right before your shower

→ Same time-saving effect, safer for your body

Keep a small stool in the bathroom

→ Helps with posture if you want to relax pelvic floor

Stay hydrated & pee regularly

→ Reduces urgency and keeps urinary tract flushed naturally

Wipe front to back, always

→ Even after shower-peeing, hygiene matters

💡 Bonus: Emptying your bladder after sex is still the #1 way to prevent UTIs.
