The human bladder can be stretched through exercise so that a person may hold their urine for longer. This practice, however, is dangerous as holding onto the urine for longer may lead to urinary tract infections as the tracts have to be routinely flushed to maintain the correct flora.
Is stretchy epithelial tissue called transitional?
Yes, you could say so. These cells appear to be square with a rounded surface when the organ or the tube in which they are found is not stretched. When the organ or tube is stretched (e.g. when the bladder is filled with urine), the tissue is compressed and the cells become stretched and more flat.

What is the trigone of bladder explain clinical significance of it?
The trigone is a smooth triangular region of the internal urinary bladder formed by the two ureteral orifices and the internal urethral orifice.

The signals become stronger as the bladder continues to fill.
Why does it hurt when you hold in your urine?
Because your bladder is only designed to hold so much. Once it reaches a point where the tissues are stretched too far, the nerve endings in the bladder send pain signals to your brain. The muscle that is part of the layered bladder wall, the detrusor muscle, starts to contract, increasing the pressure. At that point, break off what you're doing and go!
What are the trigone?
The trigone is a smooth triangular region of the internal urinary bladder formed by the two ureteral orifices and the internal urethral orifice.The area is very sensitive to expansion and once stretched to a certain degree, the urinary bladder signals the brain of its need to empty. The signals become stronger as the bladder continues to fill.Embryologically, the trigone of the bladder is derived from the caudal end of mesonephric ducts, which is of mesodermal origin (the rest of the bladder isendodermal). In the female the mesonephric ducts regresses, causing the trigone to be less prominent, but still present.
