Detailed explanation-1: -What is nocturia? Nocturia is a condition that causes you to wake up during the night to urinate. This can be thought of as nocturnal urinary frequency-having to urinate more often at night. This condition becomes more common as people age and occurs in both men and women, sometimes for different reasons.
Detailed explanation-2: -Drinking too much fluid during the evening can cause you to urinate more often during the night. Caffeine and alcohol after dinner can also lead to this problem. Other common causes of urination at night include: Infection of the bladder or urinary tract.
Detailed explanation-3: -Producing excess urine at night, known as nocturnal polyuria, may be the most common cause of nocturia. It is estimated to be a contributing cause for up to 88% of cases. For some people, excess urine production occurs throughout the day and night.
