Urinating 4 or 5 times a night, which seriously affects the quality of sleep, is a very annoying problem in life. This condition is usually seen in middle-aged and elderly men and is mostly closely related to prostate diseases.

Normal people sometimes get up at night, usually ≤ 1 time. Prolonged night rising 4 or 5 times belongs to the pathological state.

1. Prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).

Prostatic hyperplasia is a problem that every man has been facing since adulthood. In some older men, prostatic hyperplasia leads to difficulty in urination, increased residual urine, and recurrent urge to urinate with difficulty in urination. Increased nocturia is also one of the manifestations of this disease.

2. Inflammation of the prostate (CP).

It is also a common confusion faced by men. As one of the urinary organs, the prostate gland is typically characterized by frequent urination, urgency, incomplete urination, and increased nocturia.

3. Chronic urinary tract infections.

Sequelae of urinary tract infections such as gonorrhea and nongonorrhea in men, and recurrent bladder inflammation in women, which stimulate the urinary tract to produce the desire to urinate, but only little or no urine is excreted. Increased nocturia is also often seen in this condition.

4. Female perimenopause.

During menopause, women may also experience frequent urination and increased nocturia as a result of declining estrogen levels and a weakened urinary tract epithelium.

That is the case of frequent nocturia, male prostate gland elasticity will lead to poor, it is recommended that you can go to the hospital urology department to do a prostate ultrasound to confirm the diagnosis, and take Chinese medicine can regulate the good not to worry about

Usually you should not consume any food with high water content after 5 or 6 pm and do not drink water.

When you get up 4 or 5 times at night, your kidneys are usually weak and you can't fix them.

Nowadays, newspapers, media and hospitals overly publicize the benefits of drinking more water, all without much basis. The fact that you talk about getting up too much at night is most likely because you are drinking too much water during the day and hurting your bladder and kidneys.

Because I drank too much ah 😂 drink less in the future 😀

In general, normal people usually get up to urinate 2-3 times at night, and the total amount of urine discharged at night is usually about 300-750 ML. If the amount of urine discharged in 12 hours at night is more than 800 ML or more than the total amount of urine discharged during the daytime, and if the number of times of discharging urine is more than 3 times, especially in the latter half of the liquid time, the patient still needs to get up to discharging urine, then it is called Nocturia. The situation of having to urinate twice a night is often seen in older men, and the reason for this is that it has a very close relationship with the male-specific gland "prostate".

However, if we drink too much water, alcohol or fruit in our daily life, there will be an increase in the amount of urine and the number of times we urinate, but the increase in nocturia caused by diet is short-lived and can be recovered, whereas the increase in nocturia caused by disease is longer and may recur. Prostatic hyperplasia is a common cause of increased nocturia, especially for older men, if you have increased nocturia or the middle of the night to get up in the middle of the night, then in all likelihood it is indicative of their own prostate gland has a problem.

The clinical manifestations of prostate hyperplasia are: increased nocturia, frequent urination, urinary urgency and incomplete urination, if when the late prostate gland hyperplasia is obvious, or the patient eats too much spicy food and drinks alcohol, it is also very likely that urinary difficulties or urinary retention of this situation. So if there is no causal factors, and thus the number of nighttime urination increases, perhaps we should suspect that their prostate problems, but this is not to say that all the increase in the number of nighttime urination and the prostate has a certain relationship, in addition to prostate disease.

For example, like: inflammation of the urinary system, diabetes and hyperthyroidism patients may also have an increase in nocturia, but these diseases will have relatively obvious other symptoms: 1, inflammation of the urinary system: cystitis, urethritis in fact will be because of the inflammation site to stimulate their own urethral sphincter, resulting in the emergence of frequent urination, but the inflammation of the urinary system basically accompanied by urinary pain! This symptom appears, some patients can have pus or hematuria symptoms, can be identified by urine three cup test.

2, diabetes: typical diabetic patients clinical performance is based on "three more and one less" as the main, but most of the patients do not have more obvious symptoms, so if it is not the prostate or urinary system disease patients, should be tested to see if the preprandial, postprandial glucose as well as fasting blood sugar is normal. 3, hyperthyroidism: hyperthyroidism patients due to their own basal metabolic rate increases, so in addition to increased urination may also appear easy to hunger, irritability and other related clinical manifestations.

4, chronic renal failure: for example: chronic glomerulonephritis, chronic hypertension caused by chronic renal impairment, chronic tubulointerstitial lesions, chronic progression of renal disease, the surviving renal units are fewer and fewer, creatinine, nitrogen and other metabolic wastes are retained in our body, and the residual renal units are constantly working hard, resulting in an increase in nocturia at an early stage, and a decrease in the late stage, or anuria. The nocturia in the early stage is increased, and in the late stage it is decreased or absent. 5, urinary nocturia increase: if when the body has water retention, such as: the more common cardiac insufficiency, various causes of edema, pleural fluid, ascites, or in their own body to appear too much fluid collection.

After sleeping in bed at night, due to the body's blood circulation in the kidneys to get some improvement, the body's blood flow in the kidneys increased, can be their own body's retained water through the kidneys to discharge, which leads to an increase in nocturia. 6, neurasthenia, nervousness, poor quality of sleep at night, and pregnant women (the uterus gradually increase pressure on the bladder), the bladder as long as there is a mental increase in the number of nocturnal urination or habitual nocturia, this and Article 4 and Article 5 are essentially above the difference between you need to pay attention to distinguish.
However, some normal people will not get up to urinate throughout the night, and of course occasionally drink too much water before going to bed or drink too much beer and cola and other beverages, which may also lead to an increase in their own nocturnal urination, which is actually a normal phenomenon.

Normal people urinate 4-6 times during the day, 0-2 times at night, more than the normal number of times even if it is frequent urination, but physiological frequent urination will not be accompanied by urinary pain, urinary urgency and increased urinary volume symptoms, mostly in the drinking too much water, nervousness, cold weather occurs.

Frequent urination with increased urine output throughout the day is commonly seen in diabetes mellitus and uremia; frequent urination without change in urine output is commonly seen in hysteria, neurogenic bladder, bladder stones, bladder tumors, decreased bladder volume, ovarian cysts compressing the bladder, bladder tuberculosis, female urethral polyps, hymenophore, parurethral cysts, and prostatic hyperplasia in males; additionally, bladder infections, prostatitis, and parurethral infections can also cause frequent urination symptoms However, it is often accompanied by symptoms of urinary urgency and urinary pain, and urine tests often show inflammatory cells.

Every night urinate 4-5 times, which is often referred to as increased nocturia, this situation is not accompanied by other symptoms, and occurs in adult males, belongs to the pathologic frequency of urination, commonly found in the early stage of prostatic hyperplasia and hypertrophy, mainly due to the hyperplasia and hypertrophy of the prostate gland to stimulate or press the forced urethral muscle caused by the seriousness of urination, urinary line is thin and the phenomenon of interruption of the flow of urine, the need for urine tests, anal diagnostic ultrasound (PAS) and prostate-specific antigen (PAS) examination to confirm the diagnosis and exclude the possibility of prostate cancer. Urinalysis, anoscopy, ultrasound, prostate-specific antigen (PAS) test are needed to confirm the diagnosis and exclude the possibility of prostate cancer.

Once diagnosed with prostate hyperplasia, and when the symptoms are severe, you will need plant-based drugs such as Prostaglandin and pollen; 5a reductase inhibitors such as phenobarbital hydrochloride and finasteride; and a-blockers such as terazosin, alfuzosin, doxazosin, and tamsulosin, etc. Surgery can be an option for severe cases of urinary tract obstruction.

Thanks for reading!

Peeing four or five times a night is annoying enough that the quality of sleep must be sub-par.

But how can you help you with your worries when you don't even inform on the most basic information?

May I ask if you are a man, or a woman? How old are you?

This minimal information helps the docs to analyze for you, briefly, what is wrong with you.

If it's a man, it could also be a urinary tract infection or possibly the prostate.

If it's a woman, it could be a urinary tract infection.

This is the most basic, there are other causes. For example, stones, tumors, diabetes, etc., that requires more detailed information.

So I'd suggest going to your local hospital and getting a diagnostic checkup.

If there is nothing major after examination, I would suggest to go for TCM herbal treatment.
