Treatment of Urinary Problems: What You Need to Know<\/strong><\/h1>\n

\"\"<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Frequent urination at night<\/strong> is not a normal situation.  While the occasional need to urinate at night is normal if someone drinks a lot of fluids or alcohol before going to sleep, a routine need to urinate at night is usually an indicator of an underlying problem.  This is especially true if the need to urinate is not lifelong.<\/p>\n

What do you Need to Know About Nocturia?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Urination at night, or nocturia, has different causes in men and women. <\/p>\n

Is Waking Up at Night a Health Problem?<\/h2>\n

It is important to understand the ‘danger’ of nocturia<\/strong>: studies show that waking up at night interrupts REM sleep<\/strong> and leads to tiredness during the day<\/strong>; in addition, it increases the risk of falls and fractures in the elderly<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Some causes of nocturia are normal and related to behavior<\/strong>: long sleep habits (12 hours), for example.  <\/p>\n

For some people, nocturia is a behavioral issue<\/u><\/strong>.  Drinking at night before going to sleep<\/strong> is another common cause of frequent urination at night. Many men work out at night and then drink a lot of fluids which causes them to wake up.<\/p>\n

Some people drink a lot of fluids within 2-3 hours of going to sleep, and that results in a full bladder in the middle of the night, leading to bathroom trips. That is a normal situation, and the only recommendation is to limit fluid intake within 2-3 hours prior to sleep. <\/p>\n

For many men and women, waking up at night is a sign of an underlying health issue<\/strong>. Common causes of nocturia include obstructive sleep apnea,<\/u><\/strong> most commonly associated with snoring at night, enlarged prostate <\/strong>in men, overactive bladder<\/strong>, and nocturnal polyuria or “overproduction” of urine at night. Poorly controlled diabetes and congestive heart failure are other common causes of nocturia.<\/p>\n

Finally, blood pressure medications<\/strong>, known as ‘diuretics’ or ‘water pills, ‘ lead to an increase in urine production and can cause nocturia. Some examples of diuretics or water pills include furosemide or Lasix, hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ), torsemide, Aldactone (spironolactone), and Bumex (bumetanide).<\/p>\n
