This is an annoying problem that can affect both men and women.
Often there is no serious pathology although some conditions like a urethral diverticulum may need to be excluded.
There are behavioural techniques and techniques for ‘urethral milking’ and wiping that can be taught to assist with this problem.
Pelvic Floor Exercises can also help.
For women sometimes positioning on the toilet seat can make a difference.
