the most common reason would be a urinary tract infection (UTI). if your male and over 50, it could
be an enlarged prostate. either way , you should see a doctor.

The pharmaceutical industry will come up with a pill for everything, and therefor will also have to come up with a medical condition also, so yes I'm sure there is some kind of a (what they call) a "medical condition" for that. But it could just be a urinary tract infection. Just no matter what don't let your doctor put you on some medication everyday for the rest of your life to just disguise the symptoms. Try to research what the problem is and actually address the PROBLEM instead of the SYMPTOMS. Know the difference because medications are killing people more and more each day all because of the greediness of the pharmaceutical industries.

A symptom of diabetes is frequent urination. But it also could just be an infection. A couple years back, I was convinced I had diabetes because I constantly used the bathroom. I got y blood taken, and I had nothing. Don't freak out, you should just get yourself checked. Hope this helps.

Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) is probably the most common. With UTIs you almost always wake up in the middle of the night to urinate. Also, urine may be discolored or have a strong, unusual odor. UTIs are pretty easy to get, but also easy to treat unless left untreated for a long amount of time (as in years). Go see a doctor!

I had this same issue and never really addressed it. When ever I would drink beer I would be in the bathroom all night. When i got pregnant and had my first sonogram they found that i had a fibroid in there which was sitting on my bladder. It really didnt cause any discomfort except i peed alot. they also say that fibroid can cause u to have heavier and more painful periods. It is not something u need to get removed, but you can.

Yes, some medications have frequent urination as a side effect. It depends what it is.

enlarged prostate. Also it's hard to guage but the size and functioning of your kidneys also affects the frequency in urination. The more you go the better though. Not going and not drinking water will give you stones... I've had 2 which had to be removed surgically

im not really sure what is going on with you. but you should go to the doctors and get that checked out. it may be bad and it may not be bad. remember we go to the bathroom so we can get bad stuff out of our body's but just to be safe you should get that checked out. merry christmas and good luck.

Diabetes will cause you to need the toilet more often. If you are drinking more as well, you should go and see your doctor.
