What is urethral orifice?

The urethral orifice is the external opening of the urethra, the tube that carries urine from the bladder to the outside of the body. In females, it is located just above the vaginal opening, while in males, it is located at the tip of the penis. This structure plays a crucial role in the urinary system, allowing for the excretion of urine. Additionally, in males, the urethra also serves as a passage for semen during ejaculation.
