A member asked:
Do bowel movements have an effect on urine flow? for example you body might wait until the bowel movement has passed until it starts the urine flow?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes they can: Stool impaction can press on bladder neck & urethra & prevent urine flow or cause a slow stream. Bowel movement would be then be required to permit urine to flow. Hope this is your last question on the same topic.
