Urge To Urinate In The Middle of the Night: Expert Urologist Explains

I’ve tried everything! I’ve stopped drinking fluids by noon. I just haven’t seen the doctor because I don’t have insurance but I need to do it! I’m sure it has to do with my prostate or maybe kidneys or something. But I’ve let it go so long that now I’m so tired and worn out that I just wanna die

For years now, I have to get up to pee an average of three to six times a night, the most being nine times in one night.

So, how about an enlarged prostate as a contributor?

I get up to urinate 4-5 times a night .It really disturbs my sleep and it is so annoying.

Tks for your article Doc.I am a 73 yr old male with BPH and would like to seek your view reg PAE procedure .
Is this a proven way to get rid of prostate enlargement and has wide and proven efficacy of combating the above problem? Will be obliged yo seek your view on this.
Tks

When it comes to 'expert advice', remember that urologists have the lowest rate of uptake of vasectomy in all the professions. They see the damage first-hand ... but it's a great little earner, the fcukers.

I have too pee every 10-15 min 24 hours a day almost a year now doctors dont know what to do im going crazy and i get up 7-8 times at night so i sleepe very very bad what can i do its ruin my life im only 44 Please help

My nocturia kicks in more when i beat off before going to sleep. 😢

what's weird about my case is I had this problem real bad like 3 years ago for 2-3 months....then it went away. Now 3 years later after the first episode its back with a vengence and this has been going on for over a year. Please tell me this wouldn't be the case with bladder cancer!

Excellent

If we're not bothered by it, there's no need to do anything about it? There is an underlying cause, which needs addressing, and can worsen, such as with diabetes related causes.

Upon the conclusion of a urination, should one wipe the tip of the penis with toilet paper?

I wish I had a Doctor like you.

Very sensible

Thank you do much Dr. Very Helpful content I do have thus issue waking 3 to 5 per evening to urinate my bladder keeps filling up.also in the day.its annoying and quite uncomfortable I stopped drinking hot tea and coffee in evening.a little.less but still have this problem need to see urologist hope Dr is as helpful as you.😊❤🌹

thank you.

You die during the night so you don't have to urinate. You're alive during the day and all your urination, like homework, should be turned in by 6pm.

،could be also dut to BPH

Thank you Doctor.

Some internet guy claims that eating two boiled eggs just before bedtime is the cure for nocturia. I’m giving it a try.

Doc, you missed a big one: snacking in the evening.

Thanks for the valuable information

Very well explained.Thank You Doctor.👏

Seems incomplete.

The major reason for excessive urination at night is low AHD. Anti deuretic hormone also known as Vassopressin. In old age either the Hypothalamus doesn't produce this hormone enough or the pituitary gland, where it is stored doesn't secrete it enough. I'm trying to find a way to resolve this problem for my father but hasn't got any answer. Not sure if this method will work.

STOP TAKING VITAMINS!

Thank you for sharing valuable helpful TIPS. I appreciate your precious time greatly!

I have Ckd kidney disease. My mom had it. She lived til 90

I'm told to 1) drink at least 8+ glasses of water a day, 2) go for long walks and 3) get a good nights sleep. Great advice, right. Problem is I have to piss all the time. 😃

This happened to me one time..I was up 10 15 times...over and over..it was a only a little pee..but I was back in forth not even 10 minute's. it was driving me crazy 😧
I think I had a over active bladder!

Nothing is wrong to urinate at night 😂😂😂😂 you are wrong .

HOW COME ????we have sooooo many specialists / professors / PHD's but.....nothing got ever solved, it's been around for ages and will probably continue...in spite of all the moneymaking professors!

Sir I am in Saudi Arabia from Pakistan . I feel so slow blow urine and I feel pain my penis so I want do for treatment. Thank u

I am a diabetic so Drink about a quarter glass of water before retiring. I then urinate only once during the night. Any problems with this? Also have sleep apnea.

PLEASE THINK OF THIS COMMON REASON . BASIC COMMON SENSE BEFORE MEDICAL OPINION.

Tqvm Sir, your explanation is so clear and helpful. God bless you and your family 🙏

"most common!"

When the cold air hits me, I need to urinate right away, as soon as I get a chill. Why.

what is the treatment?

Ingesting high levels of erythritol for a long time can increase the urine volume and the number of times you urinate. Caffeine can promote urgency and frequency of urination as well as nocturia symptoms. L-arginine causes a significant increase in urine flow, urinary excretion.

Diabetes Insipidus is SO missed by the medical industry.

And what’s the problem with that? 🤔🤔 so you get up and pee… so what?

I think that these 5g tech towers broadcast a frequency that may cause this issue with people who live near or under one of these weapons..look at this government we have and tell me this is not possible...

Stress definitely makes a person get up and urinate. I have been running races for 40 years and the night before the race is always a bit spooky so I might use the bathroom more. The day after the race I might only get up once in the middle of the night. I actually have had doctors tell me that if I got up to use the bathroom I probably had prostate cancer. I just looked at him and thought WOW! I’ve had cancer since I was 5 years old! I quit going to him.

Person get scared when take too much leak at nite but if not scared then no problem 😸👍

Thank you dr
