Why do men urinate frequently? There are many triggering factors

If the diet causes an increase in urine volume, frequent urination will occur. In addition, some diseases such as prostatitis and cystitis can also cause frequent urination in male friends.

1 Increased urine volume : When urine volume increases, the frequency of urination will also increase accordingly. Under physiological conditions, such as drinking a lot of water, eating watermelon, drinking beer, etc., due to the increase in water intake, through the regulation and filtering of the kidneys, the urine volume will increase, the frequency of urination will also increase, and the phenomenon of frequent urination will appear; under pathological conditions, such as some patients with diabetes and diabetes insipidus who drink a lot of water, have a lot of urine, and urinate a lot. But there is no discomfort when urinating.

2 Inflammatory stimulation: When there are inflammatory symptoms in the prostate, the threshold of nerve perception decreases, the gate controlling urination fails, frequent urination occurs, and the urine volume decreases (<300-500 ml/time for adults). Therefore, frequent urination is an important symptom of prostatitis, especially in chronic prostatitis. Other diseases such as cystitis, urethritis, pyelonephritis, chronic penile capitis in children, vulvitis, etc. can also cause frequent urination. Under the stimulation of inflammatory symptoms, frequent urination, urgency, and pain often occur at the same time, which is called urinary tract irritation sign, commonly known as "tri-urination sign".

Male reproductive infections include urethritis, mycoplasma infection, chlamydia infection and some transmitted diseases. Symptoms of reproductive infections mainly include varying degrees of frequent urination, painful urination, and difficulty urinating.

5. Psychoneural urinary frequency: Frequent urination only occurs during the day or before going to sleep at night, often due to mental tension or hysteria. It may also be accompanied by urinary urgency and pain.

6 Urethra and seasonal factors: If you have frequent urination but the amount of urine is small each time, and you do not feel any pain when urinating, and there are no other symptoms, you should first consider local factors, such as inflammation of the urethral orifice, foreskin is too long, or ticks irritating the genitals.
