Is it bad if I hold my urine for a while because I'm too lazy to go to the bathroom?
Aug 16, 2013

Dr. Nehme Raad Urology
This can predispose you to urinary infection.
Germs can enter easily into the bladder of a woman because of the short urethra.
If you keep the urine a long time in the bladder, germs can stay more in the bladder, multiply and cause an infection.
Furthermore, this is a very bad habit that might be very harmful in children.
I encourage you to drink more and to void regularly.
