When urinating, at the stage of final drain, why do some people experience body shivers?

An age old question most people never talk about.  The
honest truth is that there hasn't been a lot of research in this area since the issue
isn't threatening to a person's health, it is just a matter of curiosity for individuals
and scientists.  So truly, there has been little money or motivation for serious
research to take place.


This leaves us in the realm of
theory, and a few have been presented.  The formal name for the sydnrome or condition
you mention, believe it or not, is Post-micturition convulsion syndrome.
Yes, I had to look that up.


Some suggest
that the sudden expulsion of a relatively large amount of body temperature fluid causes
a chill.  Some link it to a drop in blood pressure.  The most likely theory at this
point is that the shiver is simply a reflex of the parasympathetic
nerve.

Calculate tan(x-y), if sin x=1/2 and sin y=1/3. 0

We'll write the formula of the tangent of difference of 2 angles. tan (x-y) = (tan x - tan y)/(1 + tan x*tan y) ...
