Have you ever gotten up at night to urinate? I know that I am already sleepy and sleepy, or I have already entered a state of sleep, but I feel that my bladder is abnormally full.
So you start to struggle between getting up and not getting up, and finally you are defeated by the urge to pee, helplessly get up and rush to the bathroom, and then sleep all night is affected by this soaking urine, and the good mood disappears.
Casually search the Internet, you will find that getting up at night to urinate and a variety of diseases are related, the two most noteworthy of which are diabetes and chronic kidney disease. As a result, many people will start to worry when urinating at night. Even before it was examined, he suspected that he was suffering from various serious diseases.
So the question is, which is healthier, wake up or not up, is getting up really a manifestation of the disease?
First of all, a healthy adult does urinate less often at night than during the day. The reason for this is that people have entered a state of sleep at night, and the speed of various organs in the body is becoming slower and slower, and the kidneys are no exception.
At the same time, there is no water or food supplement all night, and breathing and sweating will consume water, so the number of urinations at night is less;
However, the smaller number of urinations at night does not mean that there is no urination all night. You know, during the day everyone still consumes water and food, and these waters are also metabolized by the kidneys, forming urine and stored in the bladder. When the bladder is full, urine naturally occurs. Therefore, a healthy adult, the number of times he urinates all night is about 0-2 times.
The reason why there is no fixed number of night rises is because everyone's specific situation is different, including age, the size of the bladder, the amount of food and water ingested, and so on. Even personal emotions and mentalities can affect the frequency of urination. Therefore, as long as urination is at a normal frequency and the amount of urine is normal, there is no need to worry too much.
Even an occasional increase in the number of urinations at night is not necessarily a signal of the arrival of the disease. You should first consider the diet of the day to see if you have eaten a lot of diuretic food. For example, eating a large number of winter melons, watermelons, etc., these foods originally contain water, but also diuretic food, urinary frequency occasionally increased, but also belongs to the normal performance.
In fact, what everyone really needs to be vigilant about is that the number of repeated night urinations has increased!
Nocturia is divided into two categories: physiological and pathological manifestations, and physiological manifestations are the influence of diet or diet and mental factors mentioned above. The increase in the number of pathological nocturia refers to the frequent nocturia caused by the disease. Usually patients present with an increase in the number of urinations at night, exceeding 3 to 5 times. Or it is an increase in urine output at night, exceeding 1/4 of the total urine output throughout the day.
If there is a sudden sudden appearance of frequent symptoms of nocturia in the near future, and after adjusting the diet and drinking water, there is no relief in the slightest, this may be a manifestation of the arrival of the disease. There are many types of diseases that cause frequent nocturia, including urinary system diseases, kidney diseases, diabetes, etc., and patients need to seek medical attention for the next step of examination.
In a word, the frequency of nocturia is indeed one of the bases for judging the disease. However, frequent nocturia does not directly diagnose the disease, and in most cases, the occasional increase in the number of nocturia is physiological.
Only multiple, repeated increases in the number of nocturia, or frequent nocturia with symptoms, this may be a manifestation of the arrival of the disease, and patients need to be vigilant and seek medical attention in time for relevant screening.
