Biologist here!

Its psychosomatic.

The brain tells itself “OK, I’m going to the pee place now” when you get up to go, and shuts off the “GOTTA PEE” warning light.

Once the brain sees the toilet, it says “TIME TO PEE” And flips that light back on to tell the bladder “go time”.

The brain doesn’t think, “I gotta undo my pants and get in position” it thinks “I’ve ignored the urge and now I see the toilet”

And the urge to pee bad comes on suddenly again
