Turned 30 last fall. Please help

r/

Do I have to accept that I’ll have pee droplets on my underwear/pants for the rest of my life? It seems like a never ending cycle of “surely that’s enough shakes”. I’m close to giving up and sitting to pee from now on.

Edit: Kegel routine starts today

    Yeah, you’re bang on with your assessment. Except sitting doesn’t help because you’ll still drip when you stand up. Sorry.

    Pee droplets are the least of your concerns.

    Buckle up.

    Time to see a doctor. That is nowhere near normal.

    Start at the gooch and kind of milk yourself to get the last few drops. Yes I’m serious and yes getting old is not for the weak hearted.

    I’m 34 and if I’m at home I sit down to pee anyway. It takes a load off my feet and I tend to have more surprise poops, which is an added bonus.

    But back to your thing, I don’t have much of a problem with pee droplets in my underwear/pants.

    ‘No matter how you squirm and dance
    The last two drops go in your pants’

    This is why I no longer sleep naked.

    And yeah this is only the start of the fun of middle age. Wait till you hurt your back sneezing. And have to wipe your ass just randomly from time to time.

    Keep yourself fit. Do male kegels. Eat healthy most of the time. It will delay a lot of problems.

    You can shake and you can dance but the last drop will always fall in your pants

    Could be a UTI or some bladder issue. Go see a doctor

    Put middle finger on the veiny thing you feel in your gooch. When done peeing, apply pressure and move it forward (toward your dick). Watch so much more pee come out.

    No pee droplets left.

    Look at the bright side — if you sit down to pee you can scroll on your phone without fear of dropping it into the pissy toilet. I learned the hard way and now I often sit whilst peeing if I want to use my phone. That said, I do NOT like public restrooms no matter how “clean” they are so I stand and just don’t use my phone in those instances.

    It doesn’t have to be an either/or thing, it can be situational.

    Wash your weiner after you go

    Press up against your sac and it squirts out the last bit .. shaking is for the young , pressing up under sac is for the old .. 36M, welcome to the family lol

    Wait until you have to get up to pee at 3 AM before you hit age 40

  16. Chimpy20 Avatar

    Apologies for being graphic, but try gently squeezing right at the base of your dong and work your way up to the top. Shaking doesn’t always do it. Also, if you’re intact, retract your foreskin while peeing to avoid pee not draining from there.

  17. AnselmoHatesFascists Avatar

    Do kegels, they will seriously help.

    No matter how much you shake and dance, the last 2 drops always go in your pants.

    Guys I’m 34 and I’ve never had pee droplets on my pants. I am very concerned for the future and you all

    My doc told me to cut out caffeine to help with this. I thought that’s RIDICULOUS, but fine I’ll do it just to prove you wrong so we can go to the next possible thing.

    They weren’t wrong. Hasn’t been an issue since I cut out caffeine.

  22. HandaZuke Avatar

    I never had this problem until I had an extra wide gauge two way Foley catheter crammed up there along with a camera

  23. Training-Bake-4004 Avatar

    I basically always sit unless I’m in public and then I’ll do urinal and shake and hope.

    But seriously, sitting is great, 100% recommend.

  24. Big-Challenge-1652 Avatar

    No matter how much you wiggle and dance the last drop always goes down your pants.

  25. ReplacementRough1523 Avatar

    just gotta gie yourself another 15 seconds after peeing.

  26. AVeryFatCow420 Avatar

    Just sit if you don’t have the patience to push the drops out like a tube of toothpaste.

  27. That_Ol_Cat Avatar

    No matter how you jiggle and how you dance, a little pee winds up in your pants. Seriously, this happens to men as we get older.

    I love how Coach Beard’s next line is a simple: “Proud of you.”

    I’d urge any man using a toilet (versus a urinal) to sit down to pee anyway. The amount of splatter which pops out is unbelievable. Don’t believe me? Get a black light and take it into your bathroom, check your walls. Gross, right? Sitting eliminates splatter. I actually told my male friends that’s the rule in my home. My wife was grateful for this pronouncement.

    I’m almost 66. Take care of yourself. Don’t get fat. Avoid sugar as much as possible and don’t go anywhere near the diet crap. Avoid processed foods. I don’t leave pee in my underwear. Wife and I are on vacation this week and will have our third round of sex tonight. Life gets better if you let it.
    Third this week just to be clear 😆

    I sit to pee almost every time. Mostly because I’m lazy, but also because piss splatters when you pee standing. Sitting doesn’t stop the drips, nor does wiping. There’s always one more.

  30. SnooMarzipans4304 Avatar

    Gotta start doing the toothpaste tube squeeze.

  31. creek_water_ Avatar

    Those pee droplets are the tip of it.

    Wait until all those years in your youth where you either had poop shyness or didn’t like public restrooms, so you held it longer than you should, comes back to bite you. That ass muscle don’t stay that strong forever, my man. I’m running sub 4 second 40’s at the first rumble now.

  32. op3l Avatar

    I just use toilet paper to dry it up.

  33. K_N0RRIS Avatar

    You gotta push up on your gooch when youre done to get the rest out

  34. Good-Soup7 Avatar

    You gotta milk it like in porn when they squirt all over the face… milk that thing from the bottom to the top.

  35. Rlyoldman Avatar

    Dude, I’ve been sitting to pee for years. Sit down, let it happen and relax. Maybe I’m just lazy but it’s good with me.

  36. ancient-lyre Avatar

    I had the same problem.

    Grab a piece of toilet paper and when you shove it back in your pants, give the tip a good cleaning. Should save you from most of the droplets.

  37. steppedinhairball Avatar

    Oh, that’s just the beginning. Next, you will pull a muscle putting on your socks. Then you notice a nose hair hanging out. They hurt to pull out btw. Then it’s thinning hair and/or graying hair. Then you get that whacked out long eyebrow hair. Then hair on the ears. Yes, you will need to shave your ears. Eventually, your eyebrows grow long enough you can use them for a combover of the bald spot.

    Just buy calico cut pants from calicocutpants.com

    But you gotta give!

    Learned this from my dad who learned this from a urologist.

    At a urinal, after you finish pissing, take your middle finger, reach behind your nuts, and press up on your gooch firmly and hold for a second or two. Should do the job.

    Oh and wash your hands with soap and water every time.

    Why not wipe the pee away with toilet paper? That’s what i’ve been doing since i was a child.

    Unfortunately, there are some parts of getting older you can only put off so long…

  44. InternationalMango5 Avatar

    There’s toilet paper right next to you. Wipe it. Why people think a few shakes is enough is baffling to me

  45. Narrow_Ad_4037 Avatar

    Wait till you go soft while in the middle of it for the first time.

  46. heliccoppterr Avatar

    31 and zero pee droplets. Maybe see a doctor

    Lol yeah this hit all of a sudden when I was like 31

  48. BrandonC41 Avatar

    I’ve started wiping

    I (cough) know a lot of men that sit to pee while on Reddit. Wait a few minutes and give a wiggle is what I’m told.

    Allegedly

    Sit to pee, and take your time. That’s what phones are for. Give yourself an extra minute or two to luxuriate in the experience.

    I thought you said 30 feet tall

  53. edwardothegreatest Avatar

    If you sit to pee, you will have to stand to finish. You’re over 30 now.

    Oh, and in twenty years, when you’re all done peeing, don’t go anywhere. In half a minute or so you will owe again.

  54. Leaf-Stars Avatar

    Kegels. They’re your best friend regarding leakage and erection health.

  55. DoktenRal Avatar

    Could also be too much tension in the pelvis, theres a lot of muscles in there. Stretching may be helpful, but if needed ask your doc about pelvic floor physical therapy.

    Don’t blame it on a birthday! What are you going to like at 40, 50, or 60. Stop complaining. You are in the prime of your life. Enjoy it. Don’t worry. It does get better but be less self-centered

    Honestly there is no reason NOT to sit to pee.

    You could also grab a square of toilet paper and dab before zipping up.

  61. Holy_Bard Avatar

    There’s a u-trap at the base of your wilber near your taint, shaking does fuck all to empty it. Just press it and all the pee will come out. You’re welcome.

  62. Hope-to-be-Helpful Avatar

    Yall don’t wipe up after you pee? Been doing that long before I turned 30…

    But do you dab?
