It functions the same before and after birth, to conduct urine from the bladder to outside the body for elimination. Urine is developed in fetuses when the baby swallows amniotic fluids and as fluids are provided via the blood from the mother.
The urine that is released in utero combines with the other wastes and fluids in the amniotic fluid and is critical for maintaining the necessary fluid levels in the amniotic sac so that the fetal lungs will properly develop. If there is an obstruction of the urethra that prevents the urine from flowing into the amniotic fluid, the fluid level in the sac can go too low and the lungs will not properly develop, and the kidneys and urinary system can be severely damaged by the obstruction.
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.
It is possible for residual sperm to be expelled from the urethra during defecation due to the proximity of the ejaculatory ducts to the urethra. This can occur if there has been recent ejaculation prior to the bowel movement. It is not a cause for concern and is a normal bodily function.
There isnt any reproductive function of tbe urethra
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.
