What causes split urine in men?

For most male friends, urine usually forms a stream when discharged, and generally does not easily spill outside the toilet. However, sometimes male friends will find that their urine flows out in two streams, which is called bifurcation. At this time, it will splash everywhere, and even urinate on their shoes. So, what is the reason for bifurcation in men's urine?

reason

1. Split urine after masturbation or sex is mainly because some semen remains in the urethra after ejaculation, and the congestion of the corpus cavernosum has not completely disappeared, resulting in poor urine flow. In addition, the urethral sphincter is overly tense and spasmodic, which makes urination uncomfortable. It is a normal physiological reaction and there is no need to cause blind panic. This is a common reason for split urine when urinating.

2. Many people have bifurcated urine when they wake up. This is because after a whole night of sleep, a large amount of urine is stored in the bladder, which leads to high pressure in the bladder. The urine is discharged with great force, which temporarily changes the shape of the urethra. When there is no urine or semen passing through the human urethra, it is like a collapsed water pipe. When there is urine passing through, it will be blocked for a short time. In addition, drinking a lot of alcohol, sexual impulses, etc. can also cause congestion of the prostate, resulting in poor urination and bifurcated urine flow. The above situations are all temporary changes in urination and do not need to be worried about.

3. If the urine stream is bifurcated frequently or for a long time, it may be related to urogenital diseases, such as urethritis and prostatitis. At this time, the flow of urine will be affected due to congestion, swelling and increased secretions of the urethra. Chronic inflammation will form scars, making it difficult for urine to be discharged smoothly. In addition to bifurcated urine stream, this type of disease is often accompanied by symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency and pain. In addition, urethral stones, or excessive foreskin or phimosis can also cause partial stenosis of the external urethral opening.
