The urethra is a large tube that extends from the bladder. The function of the urethra in a pig is to transport urine from the bladder to be excreted from the body.
The male urethra is significantly longer than the female urethra. Unlike the female urethra, it has a function in the reproductive system (carrying semen to the outside of the body) as well as a urinary function (carrying urine to the outside of the body.)
In males, the urethra carries semen as well as urine.
The innervation of the human bladder and urethra and that of the lower urinary tract of the pig is very similar. The vagina and urethra openings are separate in a human, while a pigs shares the same opening.

The prostatic portion of the urethra collects seminal fluids from the prostate during ejaculation as well as providing a duct through which urine and semen can be eliminated from the body.
The same function as the urethra in other mammals, it is the tube through which urine passes from the urinary bladder inside the body for elimination to the outside of the body in urination.
To compare and contrast the function of the urethra in male and female pigs, it is important to understand that the urethra serves the same purpose in both. The urethra functions to carry urine from the bladder to be expelled by the body. The urethra is also a part of the reproductive organs in male and female pigs.
