A member asked:
Is it better to hold your urine to develop higher holding capacity or to strengthen bladder n kidneys or to urinate often?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You want to urinate : It is best to urinate on a regular basis such as every four hours. You do not want to hold your urine as the bladder muscle and nerve damage. Holding your urine is not going to strengthen your bladder or your kidneys.
