Women urinate more frequently

Frequent urination is a very painful symptom. If it is caused by physiological reasons, such as drinking too much water, the frequency of frequent urination can be reduced by controlling the water intake. However, if women continue to urinate frequently and only a little bit, they should be careful that it may be caused by a disease and they need to find out the cause and treat it accordingly. So, why do women only urinate a little when they urinate frequently? Let’s take a look below.

1. A gynecological or urological specialist examination is required to check whether there are any malformations of the external urethral opening, such as the hymen umbrella, urethral caruncle, or even urethral cancer.

2. Acute and chronic infections of the urinary and reproductive systems: such as tuberculosis, bacterial or fungal infections. Routine urinary system ultrasound or laboratory tests including urine and secretion smears can usually confirm the diagnosis. Many women's urinary tract infections are caused by inflammation of the reproductive system. In this case, the urinary system is the affected organ and should be treated for the primary disease, such as vaginitis. Patients with long-term frequent urination should also consider invasive examinations such as cystoscopy or urodynamics, which can detect lesions that are difficult to detect with ordinary ultrasound examinations, such as leukoplakia of the bladder mucosa, glandular cystitis, overactive bladder, interstitial cystitis, etc.

3. Pay attention to whether the frequent urination of young and middle-aged women is related to navel life: navel life process is easy to induce infection due to retrograde bacteria. In this case, in addition to keeping clean and hygienic for both parties, a very important method is to urinate immediately after sex, use urine to flush out the bacteria and reduce the chance of urethral bladder infection.

4. Bladder function problems: The most typical one is overactive bladder. Its essence is that various primitive factors make the bladder in an irritated state. When encountering stimulation, it will produce uncontrollable urination and need to urinate immediately.

5. Frequent urination in a considerable number of women is caused by mental factors. A typical manifestation is that they do not feel frequent urination when their attention is distracted, but frequent urination is obvious before going to bed or when they are nervous. It is more common in women who are in menopause and requires further behavioral or psychological treatment.

6. Elderly women who have frequent urination should pay attention to whether they also have difficulty urinating. If dysuria is present, further examination is needed to exclude urinary retention caused by lower urinary tract obstruction.

7. A small number of bladder tumors have frequent urination as the main symptom. Due to the development of bladder tumors in the bladder stroma, the bladder wall becomes stiff and the effective capacity is reduced, causing frequent urination. Older women should pay attention to screening.
