A 26-year-old male 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?

Yes. When you 'hold in' a BM you squeeze the muscles around the anus/rectum and the prostate area.
