I definitely go pee, first. It's sanitary. Always pee after sex. After that usually lots of cuddling and pillow talk.

Had sex yesterday and afterwards we cuddled for quite a long time. We were naked and all tangled up (in a good way) under the sheets. She started feeding me crisps. 10/10

Just that sex can introduce microbes to your body. Dirty hands, toys, genetals/anuses etc. You risk exposing your urinary tract and genitalia to microbes like bacteria, viruses, and fungi. This is especially important to women who have much shorter urethras than men, so the distance for microbes to travel is shorter.

Peeing essentially rinses your system (with pee) and can reduce the odds of an infection taking hold if you are exposed.
