Cross-sectional analysis identifies toileting behaviors associated with lower urinary tract symptoms in women, suggesting the need for education.

Longitudinal studies are needed to clarify the directionality of these associations. Educating young women on healthy toileting habits may mitigate potential effects of unhealthy toileting behaviors on bladder health.
