Treatment of Frequent Urination at Night: What You Need to Know

Urination at night, or nocturia, has many causes in men. 

Waking night at night may seem like a minor issue, but it can cause significant problems. Studies show that waking up at night interrupts REM sleep.   Lack of adequate sleep and rest leads to tiredness during the day; it can cause lower libido and erection problems. In addition, it increases the risk of falls at night, trying to make it to the bathroom, and fractures in the elderly.

 

Some causes of nocturia are normal and related to behavior: Drinking at night before going to sleep is a common cause of frequent urination at night in younger men. Many men work out at night and then drink a lot of fluids which causes them to wake up.

 

Frequent urination at night in men can cause significant problems, including persistent lack of energy and tiredness because of lack of adequate sleep and abnormal hormonal production as a result of disturbed sleep.

Effective treatment options have available for men suffering from frequent urination at night.

Evaluation of Men with Frequent Urination at Night

Frequent urination at nightA comprehensive evaluation of men includes urine testing, ultrasound of the bladder and kidneys, urodynamic testing, and cystoscopy.  A PSA test is also typically ordered.

Treatment of men with excessive urination at night.

Treatment is guided by the findings of diagnostic testing.  The most common cause of frequent urination at night in men is urinary tract obstruction from an enlarged prostate.  Many men also experience overactive bladder as a result of an enlarged prostate.

Medical, minimally invasive, as well as surgical treatment of enlarged prostate is effective at treating the causes of frequent urination at night.

In men, nocturia is most commonly caused by an enlarged prostate, typically in men over age 45-50, but in some men, the symptoms may start earlier in the mid-’30s. 

Diabetes is a common cause of urination at night and may be the first sign of the problem.

Treatment options for an enlarged prostate include medications, behavioral treatment, minimally invasive procedures, and surgery.  The choice of treatment depends on patient preferences, size of the prostate, post-void residual, and prostate anatomy.

Innovative treatment options such as Urolift for BPH and Rezum have the benefit of a fast recovery and allow men to avoid sexual side effects, in particular ejaculation problems that can occur as a side effect of medications or surgical treatment with Greenlight laser.

Medical treatment includes:

  • Alpha-blockers: Flomax and Rapaflo
  • Alpha-reductase inhibitors: Dutasteride and finasteride are also known as Proscar and Avodart
  • Anticholinergic medications: Detrol, Vesicare, Sanctura.
