Urinary elimination

Elimination from the urinary tract is usually taken for granted. Only when a problem arises do most people become aware of their urinary habits and any associated symptoms. A person's urinary habits depend on social culture, personal habits and physical abilities or disabilities. In Australia, most people are accustomed to privacy and clean surroundings while they urinate. Personal habits regarding urination are affected by the social propriety of leaving to urinate, the availability of a private, clean facility and initial bladder training. Urinary elimination is essential to health and voiding can be postponed for only so long before the urge normally becomes too great to control.
