Actually there are two sphincters on the way up the urethra, they are
somewhat similar to the heart valves in that they fill like a sail with the
pressure of the urine. They are relatively easy to push open going the
other way, unless one tenses up or they are irritated by infection or a
foreign object; i.e., your first try with a catheter is likely your most
successful one.
The best way to do this, either from the urethral meatus or by cath, is to
lie down, have a chux or other waterproof barrier underneath, and use body
temp solution. Hope this helps

How the heck do you do that? Can this be done by males, females, or both?
You can email me all list if you like.
