This is more along the lines of micturition, correct? (That is, the urine is actually exiting the body?)
I hear that in medical contexts, "urination" refers to the process of producing urine within the body (which is still a type of excretion, I guess) and "micturition" refers to the typical process of that urine exiting the body. These definitions are rather awkward since I can say that I am currently urinating while sitting on my couch, because I drank some water a bit ago, but I am (luckily/thankfully) not micturating here.
