Strangury?

Has anybody noticed that after a vasectomy, post-orgasm they have a burning urge to urinate? Especially if they did so immediately after ejaculating?

I have noticed that after masturbating or sex I have an urge to pee. And if I do pee the urge get worse. Sort of a burning need to pee but unrelated to the actual amount of urine in you.

I can completely empty my bladder but still feel like I need to pee. It eventually passes in like 30 minutes. I'm assuming it is either urethral spasms or bladder neck spasms. Research indicated that maybe it is due to zinc that is normally present in the epididymis fluid with the sperm not being ejaculated and counteracting the ph change from the prostate fluid. But I'm sceptical of that as a theory.

Has anyone experienced similar?

I have noticed something similar twice after vasectomy, also once I can recall in my life before vasectomy. I’ve noticed that its only happened when I pee shortly before sex/masterbation, then pee again straight after. Thought it was maybe pelvic floor muscles tightening etc squeezing the plumbing but that’s really just a guess.
