DO YOU HOLD URINE FOR TOO LONG? Urine is stored in the bladder. ¤ Holding on to urine causes a stretch on your bladder. When this occurs for a long time, the muscles of the bladder weaken and you mayget a condition known as Urine Incontinence. In this condition, you will have little control over urination. You could wet yourself unknowingly! ¤ When you hold on to urine, your bladder becomes a breeding ground for bacteria. This ȋ̊s one of the causes of Urinary TractInfections . ¤ When your bladder is overfull, urine can retrograde or flow backwards into the ureters, potentially destroying them. ¤ It can also cause your Blood Urea Nitrogen τ̲̅ǿ elevate, resulting in metabolic acidosis or electrolyte imbalance. While we still advise you to take in more water, we add that you pay attention to signals to empty the bladder to prevent kidney and bladder dysfunctions.
