A member asked:
I've had some doctors on healthtap say that small drops of mucus like fluid coming from the urethra after bowel movement are just prostatic fluid. can it also be discharged before a bowel movement, such as holding stool in because of no nearby toilet?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes. When you 'hold in' a BM you squeeze the muscles around the anus/rectum and the prostate area.
