Why do men urinate more frequently at night?

Some male friends feel that they urinate frequently at night, so they come to ask me why. I think the most likely reason is that they often drink water at night, and a lot of water. Otherwise, there is a problem with their kidneys. My suggestion is that if you urinate frequently at night because you often drink water, then you should not drink water frequently at night. You can drink water, but don't drink too much water, so that you won't urinate so frequently at night.

Increased frequency of urination at night in men is seen in 1. prostate hyperplasia, prostatitis 2. diabetes 3. kidney disease. It is recommended that you do not eat in the morning, go to the hospital to test blood sugar and urine routine, and do a prostate ultrasound if necessary.

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, because of the increase in water intake, after the regulation and filtering function of the kidney, the urine volume increases, the frequency of urination also increases, and frequent urination appears. Under pathological conditions, such as a small number of people with diabetes and diabetes insipidus who drink a lot of water, have a lot of urine, and urinate more frequently, but they do not have any discomfort or olfactory sensation when urinating.

2. Inflammatory stimulation: When there is inflammation in the bladder, the nerve olfactory threshold is lowered, the urinary center is in a state of excitement, resulting in frequent urination and reduced urine volume. Therefore, frequent urination is an important symptom of cystitis, especially acute cystitis and tuberculous cystitis.

3. Bladder capacity reduction: such as bladder space-occupying lesions, compression of the enlarged uterus during pregnancy, tuberculous bladder contractions, or large bladder stones.

4. Non-inflammatory irritation: such as urinary tract stones and foreign bodies, often manifested by frequent urination.

5. Psychoneural urinary frequency: Frequent urination only occurs during the day or before going to sleep at night. It is often caused by mental urgency or seen in hysterical patients. At this time, it may also be accompanied by urinary urgency and pain.

If a male friend suffers from urinary tract inflammation, such as the more common clinical acute cystitis, urethritis and other diseases, it can cause frequent urination at night. Experts explain that under the stimulation of inflammation, frequent urination, urgency and pain may occur at night, and the most common occurrence of these symptoms is prostatitis in men. This is a more serious problem.

No matter what the cause of frequent urination is, it will cause great trouble to the patient's life, so frequent urination must be taken seriously.

If you don't urinate frequently because you drink too much water at night, then I suggest you go to a regular hospital for consultation. It is very likely that there is a problem with your kidney or bladder or other urinary system. If you have any disease or problem, you should seek treatment in time. If it is due to other reasons, you can also ask me and I will help you find the problem.
