It is based on how much we exercise. Gravity is a way to excrete urine.

It is affected by many things but mostly by the gravitational pull. Our body decides how much because our bodies have evolved to use gravity as a way to excrete urine throughout our urinary system. It also affected by how our system works cleans our body.
