Peeing after s*x helps flush out bacteria before it can travel to the bladder. But there’s no absolute time requirement.
“While urinating before and after s*x clearly decreases the chance of a urinary tract infection, the couple doesn’t need to have a stopwatch,” Copperman says.

That sense of immediacy you feel is
unfounded, so unless you really have to pee, there’s no need to force
yourself—squeezing out a drop or two isn’t effectively flushing out your
system anyway. Feel free to get in some cuddle time or a quick nap, if
that’s what feels right. Just make sure to go before you fall asleep for
7 hours.
You are likely aware that the an*s is
pretty darn close to the v@g*na. This means that fecal bacteria is also
nearby, even in the cleanest of women. This situation plus s*x can have
an unpleasant outcome. “When you have intercourse, that penetration
allows some of this bacteria to get closer to the urethra,” says Kim.
