Frequent Urination at Night: Causes & Remedies

Frequent urination at night, also known as nocturia, is a common condition that affects people of all ages, especially older adults. Waking up multiple times during the night to urinate can disrupt sleep, affect daily productivity, and indicate an underlying health concern. This video explains the causes of frequent urination at night, when to seek medical help, and how to manage it effectively.

Common Causes of Frequent Nighttime Urination

Several factors may lead to nighttime urination (nocturia):

Excess fluid intake before bedtime

Diabetes or uncontrolled blood sugar levels

Urinary tract infections (UTIs)

Overactive bladder syndrome

Prostate enlargement in men (Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia)

Heart or kidney conditions leading to fluid imbalance

Use of certain medications like diuretics

When to Seek Medical Advice

Occasional nighttime urination is normal, especially after drinking more fluids in the evening. However, frequent episodes—more than two times per night—may indicate an underlying medical issue. If you experience persistent frequent urination at night, along with symptoms like pain, fever, or blood in urine, consult a healthcare professional.
