I've been noticing a few drops of mucus-like fluid on my underwear coming from my urethra after a bowel movement (and even times when I need to hold stool in), and I'm wondering what it is? Do i need to clean the toilet after use when it happens?
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?
