Girls often get up at night to urinate

Sleeping through the night is a luxury for people who urinate frequently. Having to wake up every night to urinate affects not only the quality of sleep, but also the mood. So, what is the reason for getting up frequently at night? What should I do if I wake up frequently at night?

Is it normal to wake up at night?

Generally, most of the time we urinate because of urgency. If it is not caused by disease, it is normal for most people to get up once or twice at night. Excessive urination should be attributed to frequent urination and urgency, which means increased urination frequency. A normal adult urinates 4 to 6 times a day during the day and 0 to 2 times at night after sleeping; a baby urinates 20 to 30 times during the day and night. If the frequency of urination increases significantly and exceeds the above range, it is frequent urination and urgency.

If you start to urinate frequently and urgently at night, you need to check to see if it is caused by some disease. In addition to psychological barriers, the inability to hold urine should also be considered as inflammation of the prostate. The inability to hold urine is mainly due to excessive contraction of the diaphragm, left ventricular insufficiency or due to untimely treatment. And at the same time, the coordination with the detrusor muscle of the bladder is not harmonious. Of course, it can also be caused by the squeezing effect of prostate enlargement.

What are the reasons for frequent urination at night?

1. Improve urination

As urination increases, the frequency of urination will also increase accordingly. Under physiological conditions, such as drinking a lot of water, eating fruits, and drinking alcohol, due to the increased water flow, urination increases according to the adjustment and filtration function of the kidney function, and the frequency of urination also increases, resulting in frequent urination and urgency. Under pathological conditions, such as some patients with diabetes mellitus and diabetes insipidus, they drink a lot of water, urinate a lot, and urinate more frequently. But there was no discomfort when urinating.

2. Inflammation and irritation

When there is inflammation in the bladder, the threshold of the nerves is reduced and the urinary sensory center is in an excited state, resulting in frequent urination and decreased urination.
