[–] daggermoon@piefed.world 5 points 4 months ago (2 children) How does one do that? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] AnarchistArtificer@slrpnk.net 14 points 4 months ago* (1 child) Someone has already said that it's the muscle you use to stop peeing midstream, but I wanted to add a few other points: Once you've identified the muscle, you shouldn't do kegels while peeing, because this can lead to UTIs and an unhappy bladder When you do kegels, you should try to only engage your pelvic floor muscles; try to avoid engaging other muscles in your thighs, buttocks or abdomen. Isolating your pelvic floor muscles can be tricky at first, but it gets easier As well as improving aspects of sexual function, kegels also help with incontinence. If you practice them now, you'll be thankful for it as you age permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] daggermoon@piefed.world 3 points 4 months ago Thank you for this wonderful advice. I shall attempt to practice it. permalink fedilink source parent [–] whoisearth@lemmy.ca 8 points 4 months ago You know how you stop peeing mid pee? That's how. Clench. Hold it for a count of 10. Release and repeat. Do it in the morning and evening to start. permalink fedilink source parent
