What Causes Headache Upon Holding Urine For Sometime?

Curious if there is a correlation between holding urine and headaches. I had to hold my pee for an ultrasound today and now I have a monster headache. Wondering if there is a correlation. I am a 44 year old female in excellent health and weigh 140 pounds.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Holding urine may have caused anxiety to you and that may trigger headache. Also an urine infection may happen as well. Try to drink lots of fluids and urinate frequently, because this is how your body is cleaned.

Best regards!
