The comments under the post were shocked by Dr. Sadovskaya’s advice, as many of them said they always go to the bathroom before leaving the house and have no idea that it can be bad for the bladder.
One person said: “I saw a similar TikTok video a while ago and started doing it (when I know there’s a toilet where I’m going, or on the way) and it’s helped me go there less often.”
Another added: “That’s definitely me. And that’s why I’m always nervous when I travel on a bus without a toilet.”
Some misunderstood the doctor’s advice and insisted that they would continue to go to the bathroom when they felt the need. Dr. Sadovskaya did not advise holding back on urinating or preventing yourself from going to the bathroom, as that can also be dangerous, but simply suggested that you should only go when you really need to.
