Is it really necessary?
Based on current medical evidence, we cannot say it is absolutely necessary, but there is evidence that it is beneficial. Bacteria that cause urinary tract inflammation can enter your urinary tract and travel all the way up to your bladder.
Urinating after sex can help clear your urinary tract by flushing out bacteria that entered during intercourse with a natural rinse (urination). As you might expect, urine, with its fluid volume and continuous flow, acts as a natural flushing system for the urinary tract.
Urinating after sex is not a bad idea and may reduce the risk of urinary tract infection for some people. This risk reduction is smaller for men, because men have a longer urethra and therefore a naturally lower risk of infection. Anatomical differences can be an important factor in determining a person's susceptibility to urinary tract infections.
