Urea is made of the waste products of protein metabolism. It is blisteringly strong, with that familiar ammonia smell. Before leaving the kidneys, it is diluted in 95 percent water to become urine. This dilution prevents the strong urea from damaging the delicate linings of the bladder and urethra. Urine is normally a pale straw yellow in color. If it is darker and smells more strongly of ammonia, there is not sufficient water in the body.

Increase water intake to 8 tall glasses daily

Healthy urine is sterile; it is free of germs. It drips down from the kidneys into the stretchy pouch of the bladder. It pools here until the level slowly rises and stimulates nerve receptors in the wall of the bladder. These send messages to the brain which translates them into the urge to urinate.

Obey these messages as soon as the time is appropriate

Urine which pools in the bladder is static. Static urine can quickly become infected. In that case, the germs can travel up to the kidneys and cause serious damage. To avoid static urine, the bladder has a defense mechanism called "the wash out effect." At each urination, it can almost completely empty itself. Any germs which have traveled up the urethra are regularly "washed out."

Allow time for the bladder to completely empty itself

The bladder walls are stretchy and elastic. On average, they hold between 10 to 12 ounces of urine, about the same volume as a can of soda. But the stretchy walls can balloon out to hold a great deal more. Avoid this. Repeated over stretching can reduce their elasticity. Eventually, the connective tissue frays and loses its ability to shrink back to its previous size.

Urinate when the urge is mild to moderate

There are rings of muscles at the neck of the bladder; these are sphincters to control the flow of urine. Most women will be aware of these sphincters at some time in their life. They can go into spasm for no known reason. This is hesitancy, the urine flow takes some while to start. Bladder sphincters can weaken later in life, or from the weight of a fetus during pregnancy.

Avoid unnecessary challenge to the bladder sphincters.
