Detailed explanation-1: -Urine leaves your body through a hole at the end of your urethra. That hole from the inside to the outside is called the urethral meatus . (The term ‘meatus’ refers to any opening from the inside to the outside.)
Detailed explanation-2: -The external urethral sphincter is composed of striated muscle and is located distally and inferiorly to the bladder neck in women between the vaginal orifice and clitoris. In the females, the external sphincter is also known as the urogenital sphincter and is made of 3 parts. The first part is circular.
Detailed explanation-3: -Overall the function of the male urethra is to allow passage of urine and semen. The urethra connects the distal portions of the urinary system, such as the urinary bladder, to the external environment and allows for urine excretion from the body.
