I go pee before bed, wake up in the middle of the night because i have to pee, wake up at 9am and i have to pee, i have to pee at 11, at 1, at 3, at 5, at 7, at 9, now its 11;37pm and i have to pee again!!! And when i have to pee i have like a 5 min time range or i will pee myself.. I had a glass of juice today and a glass of milk.. but i have been noticing this more and more.. Is this normal??????

Answers:

Do you take birth control pills? Some of them contain diuretics that make you urinate more frequently to get rid of water weight gain. Like when I was on Yasmin that birth control had me going to the restroom to pee all the time, I later learned it contained a diuretic.

If you don't, your frequent urination could be a sign of diabetes. Do you feel the overwhelming urge to drink lots of water, but you are never satisfied no matter how much you drink? If so you need to go to the doctor and get checked to see if you have diabetes.

And I have recently learned that there is something called a small bladder. That is when you have a "smaller bladder" and you will feel the need to pee, BUT if you were to hold it for a while the feeling would go away and your bladder would stretch.

This is not to be confused with an overactive bladder in which it could be just a small amount of urine that causes the feeling that you need to urinate. And if you don't urinate you could actually urinate on yourself if you cannot get to the restroom.

So these are some options for you. I hope I helped. Good luck!



The normal amount of peeing per day is 5 times.
