Frequent urination can be a cause for concern, but understanding its causes and management is essential. Dr Shalabh Agrawal explains when frequent urination is normal and when it may indicate an underlying issue.

A typical frequency of urination varies, with most people urinating four to five times during the day and usually once at night. However, this can be influenced by several factors, including water intake, body habits, tea and coffee consumption, smoking, and spicy food intake.

Dr Shalabh highlights that abnormal urination is when a person urinates more frequently than usual, to the extent that it disrupts daily life, interferes with routine activities, or disturbs sleep. Identifying whether this increased frequency is due to an underlying condition is crucial.

In young adults, common causes of frequent urination include urinary tract infections, urine infections, urinary stones, urinary tract strictures, and an overactive bladder. In older adults, conditions such as bladder tumours, prostate tumours, benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), and carcinoma of the prostate are common contributors.

To manage abnormal urination at home, Dr Shalabh recommends regulating water intake, limiting tea and coffee consumption to one or two cups a day, avoiding smoking, refraining from regular alcohol intake, and identifying and avoiding trigger foods that may worsen the condition.

Understanding the causes of frequent urination and adopting appropriate lifestyle changes can help manage the issue effectively. However, if symptoms persist, seeking medical advice is crucial to rule out serious conditions.
