Does it work for children who wet the bed to use hormone regulation?

Patient's question:

My child is already three years old, but he still frequently wets the bed at night. Even if I wake him up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom, he doesn't wake up. The next day, I find that he has wet the bed. There's nothing I can do about it anymore. Some doctors suggest using medication, such as antidiuretic hormones. Does hormone treatment work for bedwetting in children?

Doctor's answer:

This situation primarily involves gradual nurturing and persuasion, as medication is not recommended for such young babies! It's important to cultivate good urination habits in the child, maintain a regular daily routine, allow for appropriate rest during the day, avoid spicy and irritating foods, and limit liquid intake after 6 PM in the evening. Encourage the child more often. Adults should be more attentive and patient. Avoid scolding or corporal punishment at every turn. Massage, physical therapy, and acupressure can yield better results. In the early stages, traditional Chinese medicine can be used to gradually regulate the child's condition. It's best to avoid using diapers to prevent dependency.
