Urination without facilities
Women generally need to urinate more frequently than men; this can be due to having a smaller functional bladder capacity. Resisting the urge to urinate because of lack of facilities can promote urinary tract infections, which can lead to more serious infections and, in rare situations, can cause renal damage in women. Female urination devices are available to help women to urinate discreetly as well to help them urinate while standing.
