What causes the frequent Urge to Pee?

[DRH-sangli]

Having the constant urge to pee, even when you've just finished, is medically referred to as frequent urination or urinary frequency.

On average, people empty their bladders anywhere from four to eight times per day. Most are able to control their bladder if the urge suddenly appears.

But if you suddenly find that you need to go more frequently and have a hard time to hold it in, it may be the indication of a more serious medical concern ,including bladder cancer or prostate trouble. Type 1 and 2 diabetes is also known to cause excessive peeing in order for the body to rid itself of unused glucose.

prostate bulging is the culprit in most cases. Doctors try to correct it by oral drugs initially.

Infection can cause this in females not sure about males.

Enlarged prostate causes frequent urination. You can't empty urine completely. There will be residual urine in the bladder. Hence the urinary bladder will become full within a short period. You have to wake up 2 or more times at night to void urine.
