Yeah, it's a great point. So normal voiding would be every two and a half to four hours. And when we sit down to pee and poo, technically, we need the pelvic floor muscles to relax in order for the bladder to contract or the rectum to void. And if we are not relaxing completely, then it can hinder that.

And there could be, there's always going to be a small residual, like the bladder is constantly filling. So there's always going to be considered normal amount of residual, not a huge amount, but not enough to signal that you would need to go anymore. But so we should sit down, relax the pelvic floor, bladder contracts, pee comes out and it comes to an end and we're done.

That's what should happen. In people who have tight pelvic floors that aren't relaxing, it may be difficult to empty completely. The bladder is trying to contract, but the pelvic floor is not relaxing enough. There could be residual that's then kept And some people notice that they feel like it's empty and then they stand up and then there's a little bit more that dribbles out.

So that could be tight muscles. It can also be pelvic organ prolapse. So especially if the bladder has shifted out of its optimal position, it starts to bulge in the vagina, creates a little pocket where urine can get trapped.

So that can make for that sensation of incomplete voiding or that stand up and then a little bit more comes out because the bladder then shifts now that it's empty and you stand up and move around. So double voiding is Not what I say that everybody should be doing. However, if you notice that you feel like you have to push to pee, you shouldn't have to push to pee. You should not push to pee.

If you notice that there's that post void dribble, if you notice that you pee, but it doesn't feel like it's completely empty, you can do a second void, like a double voiding strategy where you sit in empty and then you stand up, do a few little hip circles, tuck, untuck, sit back down, take a breath in, relax the pelvic floor and see what else comes out.

So that's kind of like that last P that you were told about. So not a strategy I would say everybody should adopt, but it's something that if you notice some of those things, then you can do that. But I would also then go figure out why that's happening. So go see a pelvic floor PT. Is it because you have prolapse? Is it because your muscles are non-relaxing?
