Peeing at night often

Surgeries at this stage is probably not necessary. Here are some suggestions:

1. Control your fluid intake. The way I do it is getting most fluid intake in the morning. One cup of fluid for lunch. Dinner is compose of dry foods, no soup or fruits or salad here, and 1 cup of fluid.

2. You may have sleeping disorder. Try taking some non habit forming sleep aid for few nights to see if it helps.

3. You probably have urinary retention. You need to find out how much. Depending on the answer, you will have to make decisions on what to do next.

Tamusolin is Flomax.  Just learned.  Thanks, and good luck!

Have you tried self cathetering before bed to make sure you have emptied your bladder completely? And maybe stop drinking anything after 8pm?

Hi s43429,

I've had this problem for a couple of years.  What you could do is keep a "bladder chart" for a week.  Note down how much you drink and how much you void for every hour of the day.  If it turns out that you void more at night than during the day you may have nocturnal polyuria which causes nocturia (having to get up to pee at night).  This can be treated by taking a medication such as Noqdirna before bed.  This is an anti-diuretic which inhibits the production of urine when you are asleep.  It is available in the UK (I've been prescribed it) but you may have to have your sodium levels monitored every so often.
