Advantages of the toilet:

1. It is more labor-saving to use the toilet to go to the toilet. The load-bearing capacity of the legs is not large, and the weight is transferred to the toilet, so it is very convenient for the elderly and the weak.

2. The shape of the toilet is fashionable and elegant, which can be matched with various styles of decoration, suitable for young people who love beauty.

Disadvantages of the toilet:

1. The biggest disadvantage of the toilet is that it is unhygienic, especially the use of the toilet in public places makes people panic. Bacteria, parasites, etc. are easy to attach to the toilet, which can easily cause cross-infection. In addition, if the toilet is used at home, it is easy for boys to urinate and scatter the urine on the edge of the toilet, which is very unclean.

2. Although the toilet can make the posture of going to the toilet very comfortable, it can “wrong” us to defecate, and it is easy to cause poor defecation.

3. The prices of toilets are uneven. Some toilets cost tens of thousands of yuan, which is many times that of squatting toilets. In addition, toilets are more likely to be blocked, leaked, and damaged than squatting toilets.

4. Because it is not difficult to use the toilet to go to the toilet, many people will prolong the time of going to the toilet, which is prone to hemorrhoids.

Advantages of squatting toilets:

1. When using the squatting pan to go to the toilet, it is very difficult for us to maintain the squatting position for a long time, especially for the elderly and obese people, so this will help reduce the time for people to defecate and complete defecation as soon as possible. Helps reduce the incidence of hemorrhoids.

2. According to scientific research, the squatting posture is more conducive to defecation than the sitting posture, making defecation smoother, especially for constipation. Using the toilet is not easy to defecate, which may make constipation more serious.

3. When using the squatting toilet, we do not directly touch it, which can reduce the chance of infection and make it safer and more hygienic.

Disadvantages of squatting toilets:

1. For the elderly, obese, and pregnant women with limited mobility, squatting to go to the toilet is very difficult. If you get up suddenly after squatting, you will feel dizzy and accidents may occur.

2. Going to the toilet in a squatting position, if you use too much force, it may cause anal fissure and prolapse.
