And if you somehow disagree with flushing it down if it is brown, I suppose I would like to hear about that as well.

    First of all, if you can’t smell the uric acid and urea in piss, there’s probably something wrong with your nose.

    Piss sitting in a bowl for hours will become really stinky later. When leaving the body of a healthy person, piss can be considered sterile. Once it’s exposed to air and sits in a bowl however, microorganisms will start living off of it and will reproduce, which alters it and often creates extra smells.

    This has nothing to do with how much water you drink. It’s just because of urine is how the body gets rid off waste. There are spores in the air and bacteria clinging to difficult to reach areas of the bowl, as well as living in the pipes beyond it. Those will reach the bowl and find some of the waste can still nourish them.

      K but if you’re drinking water regularly, you’re going to be peeing regularly. So you’re probably not leaving it to sit for hours. Flush every two pees and it’s no problem!
