How to deal with a child who frequently wets the bed?

Patient's question:

The child is eight years old and always wets the bed when taking a nap at night. What can be done about it? Sometimes it's better, sometimes worse. Previous treatment history and effectiveness: We have given him many nutritional supplements, but it didn't help. Kind of help needed: Thank you for your guidance.

Doctor's answer:

Children under the age of two lack the ability to control urination, so bedwetting is a normal occurrence. Children over the age of two and a half have more than 60% who no longer wet the bed at night. However, if a child is still frequently bedwetting after the age of three, or if a child aged five to six still wets the bed more than twice a month, or if a child over the age of six wets the bed more than once a month, it can be diagnosed as enuresis in children.
Recommendation: Consume placenta powder to enhance the baby's immunity. The placenta, also known as the afterbirth or fetal membrane, is called zi he che in traditional Chinese medicine. It is warm in nature and belongs to the lung, liver, and kidney meridians, with the functions of warming the kidneys, nourishing essence, replenishing qi, and strengthening the body.
