In case of Male Excretory and Reproductive systems are combined by Nature.In Excretory system, you have two Kidneys, two Ureters,(Not Urethra.)and one urinary bladder for to store urine.From Urinary bladder, you have what is called as Urethra, for passage of urine.All these structures are common to both males and females.In case of females length of Urethra is very short. It makes them difficult to hold urine for longer duration of time.(Simple Physics.)In case of males reproductive system is also attached to Excretory system. Sperms are produced in two Testes. They travel a very long journey. (More than 12 meters.)From Epididymis, you have Vas Differns travelling through inguinal canal and then joining the Urethra, which is surrounded by Prostate Gland. (There are two Seminal Vesicles are attached to Urethra. They provide bulk to Semen,60 %, during ejaculation.)Prostate gland(Which contribute 30 % in Semen.) encloses about 4 to 5 cm of urethra.Then, you have about 1.5 cm of Membranous part of Urethra.(Bulbourethral gland is attached to this part of Urethra.) Then starts Penile Urethra. which is about 15 cm long.( In total about 20 cm long.) So Male Urethra performs two functions. 1)Passage of urine from urinary Bladder.2)Passage of semen during ejaculation.

What are the diffence between the male and female urethra?
The female and male urethra function in the same way for urinary elimination. The female urethra is shorter in length than a male's, with the female urethra approximately 1 1/2 inches long and the male urethra approximately 8 inches long. Therefore, females can be more vulnerable to urinary tract and bladder infections since the pathway for germs from outside the body is shorter in females. Both males and females have sphincter muscles at the base of the bladder that control the release of the urine from the bladder to the urethra. In males, the urethra also functions as a tube for the release of semen in ejaculation. Their urethras intersect with the vas deferens, the tube that moves semen from the reproductive organs, at the area of the prostate gland. A valve at the base of the urethra directs the flow of either urine or semen through the urethral tube.
