A not-straight urine stream can be influenced by your posture while urinating, such as standing or sitting.
The way you position yourself when you urinate can affect how your urine stream flows. Studies have shown that standing versus sitting can change the flow of urine.
These insights suggest that simple changes in how you urinate might help if you notice your urine stream is not straight. Remember, if you have concerns about your urinary health, it is always good to talk to a healthcare provider.
