Lost Control Of Bladder At Night. What Can Be Done?
Question: I lose control of bladder at night. That is the only time.
Brief Answer:
Can be due to excessive water intake .
Detailed Answer:
Dear Sir ,
Thank you for posting your query on XXXXXXX
Well what I could interpret from your complaints is that you lost control of your bladder in night but that happens only at night time not in the day time .
It can be urinary incontinence and your excessive water intake can be the cause for that . Although many causes can be there but in your case this remains the prime .
I would advise you to limit your water intake for some time and see if it relieves your problem . Diabetes , Benign hypertrophy of prostate needs to be ruled out . If the symptoms dont improve I would like you to consult a urologist .
Take care.
