[Serious] Best Pee Strat

Sorry if this is the wrong place to post this, but I need some advice. Tomorrow at 16:00 I need to pee into a cup at the doctor’s office for a drug test and I am a very shy pee-er. Should I hold my morning pee from 8:00 to 16:00 to make sure I have enough of it or should I pee as soon as I wake up and drink water throughout the day and hope I have enough? Thank you all.

I agree with the others – stay hydrated and maybe drink coffee to give yourself a boost. But I have another suggestion which works for me but not for my husband so I have no idea if it’s unusual.

As long as I haven’t just very recently peed, I can make myself pee by tickling the top of my ass crack. So I sit on the toilet, touch that spot, and pee starts to trickle. Then it’s like as soon as it gets started, it’s easy to continue.

The importance of coffee in this equation cannot be overstated. If you’re worried, try having a 12oz coffee plus lots of water an hour or two before your appointment. Don’t hold it in all day before the appt, you might hurt yourself. Just goose your waterworks with coffee and stay well hydrated before going in and you should be fine.

Also, doctors know about bashful bladders so just let them know you might be a minute. You may also be able to collect a sample at home if you discuss it with them first(don’t roll up to your doctor today with a cup of unasked-for pee). You’ve got options. Just when you’re in the moment, relax and let the coffee do the work.

I disagree re the unasked for pee. I personally believe you should always keep a Gatorade bottle of urine on hands at all times, just in case.

I’ve never had someone watch me pee at a doctor’s office for a drug test. They put you in a bathroom with some special chemical dye in the water and tell you that you cannot flush or it voids the test. They also provide water. If you are concerned, I would drink 45 minutes and 30 minutes ahead about 2 cups of water each time. Then when you get there you should be fine.

Definitely don’t do the first option, it’s important to not have a too full bladder for too long, and to go to the bathroom regularly. Best option would be to start hydrating today, and continue to hydrate well into tomorrow. The goal should be to have a light yellow urine colour. If you are concerned about not being able to pee during the moment, drink a small water bottle (375 mL or approximately 13 US fluid ounces) a hour before you need to give the sample, and you should be good to go.
