in males the urethra is part of odth the reproduction system and the urinary system and its about 20 cm(8 inches) it also passes through the prostate gland. in female the urethra is about 4cm (1.5 inches) its a thin_walled tube that only drains the bladder and is separated from the reproductive system.
If you are talking about Ureters and the Urethra of the urinary system, the ureters are the ducts that carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder. The urethra on the other hand is a tube that carries urine from the urinary bladder to the outside of the body. In addition to this ureters are two in number and there is only one urethra. the urethra in males has two functions; for ejaculation of sperm to the female vagina and also used for the urination/urine outlet.
The act of measuring the circumference of the urethra with a urethra gauge is called urethra gauging, an assessment performed by a health-care provider.The act of dilating the size of the urethra with a urethra sound is called urethra sounding, an intervention performed by a health-care provider.Urethra sounds are used to dilate the size of the urethra, usually performed by a urology specialist (urologist). This process of urethra sounding is performed on patients with urethra strictures as an intervention. This process of dilating the urethra differs from the measurement process in that the process of urethra sounding is an intervention. The process of urethra gauging is an assessment. Urethra gauges are used by doctors, nurses, and physician assistants to measure the circumference of the urethra prior to insertion of a urinary catheter, indwelling urinary catheter/Foley catheter. However, patients that undergo urinary catheterization without first the use of a urethra gauge are more likely to require the services of a urologist to circumvent further complications of improper urinary catheterization.
A flexible rubber or plastic catheter is then inserted into the urethra, and dye is injected into the catheter.
