AnswerThe "Pee Shakes", "Urination Shivers", or "Post-Micturition Convulsion Syndrome" is a tingling sensation down your spine that you feel during or right after peeing. The feeling is similar to the shivering you experience in cold weather.

According to research, more males have experienced this than females. (About 7 males to every 5 females.)

Some claim changes in the nervous system occur when the bladder is relaxed, which cause you to shake involuntarily. It's more likely that the rapid release of warm fluid lowers your overall body temperature, which causes you to react the way you would in a cold breeze.

A man's penis is used to both ejaculate and urinate. Whilst urinating there can be some of the same stimulation that one would find whilst ejaculating, causing a mild pleasurable rush through our bodies. It is our nervous system that causes this and we are not necessarily shivering because of our surrounding temperature, but because we enjoy the stimulation so well.

I'm not a doctor, but that's my guess.

Research has not been done on this, so we have to make do with theory:

  • at the moment of urination, there is a slight blood pressure rise and a momentary flushing or euphoria shortly after relaxing the urethral sphincter
  • your urine is warm, and when you urinate, you lose that body heat, feeling a slight chill
  • see the related link for a great article on the subject
I don't understand why intelligent people keep putting forward this "loss of body heat" nonsense. When you pee, you are losing mass from your body which contains heat, but there is no mysterious mechanism by which this takes heat away from (and therefore lowers the temperature of) the remaining mass. Furthermore, it also cannot be due to evaporative cooling, because such evaporation occurs only when the urine is no longer in contact with the body.

Because your body uses up energy to heat up your pee. When you pee, all the heat that was going towards warming up your pee goes towards warning YOU up.

Can't speak for all men, but I have. Usually in younger men I expect. Just nerve ending being stimulated, no big deal.

Does frequent urination during pregnancy means miscarriage?

No not at all. Frequent urination is common during pregnancy. Frequent urination during pregnancy means the fetus/uterus is crowding your bladder or possibly even using it as a punching bag! All women experience increased urination during pregnancy. Another thing to consider with frequent urination is a bladder infection, or if the increased urinating is accompanied by extreme thirst, pregnancy induced diabetes. Talk to your doctor about any changes you notice. If a bladder infection goes unchecked, the infection can spread to the kidney's, the kidney infection - which causes frequent urinating, can also cause premature labor or miscarriage.

Why shiver after urinate?

Shivering is a kind of involuntary shaking movement of the muscle during the recovery or recuperation of certain amount of a temperature (about body temperature) after temperature dissipation. Urination, although not all, is a kind of temperature release since urine is of higher temperature (about body temperature) while inside the body. Consequently, body shivers to gain back the stable body temperature. I hope this explains understood well. I love YOE DERBOY.
