Nocturia - producing too much urine at night?

Had this for about or over 10 years now, I just put up with it, going to pee every 2-3 hours at night. In my 30s, decent health. Saw urologist before, no obvious problems found for tests run & body check. He gave me sample medications typical for nocturia/polyuria treatment, but none seem to work for me, still had to go. Don't recall the meds tried, have to look at my paperwork.

It just seems like I produce a lot of urine at night for some reason. And my best option may be to minimize fluid intake at night, I try when I can, but it's kinda hard to do. I tend to get thirsty towards night time compared to daytime. I still pee often during daytime but nothing crazy unlike night time.

My flow of urine is fine, and my bladder feels empty every time I go, it just "refills" at night 2-3 hrs later.

Sometimes I could probably hold the urine for longer at night, but doing so would likely keep me awake, as there's this nagging feeling at the bladder I can't "turn off". So I just go, empty it, and go back to bed feeling better, until the next iteration. I automatically wake from sleep to go during those iterations.

Just wondering if there's others with my kind of symptoms, and how you've dealt with things.

Just for you to check that all bases have been covered by your urologist. webmd.com/diabetes/polyuria...

I have experienced that myself - for years. During one of my chemo treatments I started to use medical cannabis - and am still amazed at how it has helped me. I take an edible right at bedtime now - and often sleep through the night. Hope this helps.
