Patient's question:
Recently, I feel like I always want to go to the toilet every day. I also often feel that my mouth is very dry and I drink a lot of water, especially at night. Sometimes I have to go to the toilet several times before going to bed. My urine is not yellow, and after a careful self-examination, there is nothing unusual with my vaginal discharge. My menstrual cycle is also quite normal!Doctor's answer:
Generally, the reasons for frequent urination in physiological conditions include excessive fluid intake. Due to increased water intake, urine volume also increases, leading to more frequent urination, which again causes frequent urination. In pathological conditions, such as some diabetic patients and patients with diabetes insipidus, excessive water intake leads to increased urine volume and more frequent urination. Inflammation: Acute cystitis, tuberculous cystitis, urethritis, pyelonephritis, and vulvitis can all cause frequent urination. Under the influence of inflammation, symptoms such as frequent urination, urinary urgency, and dysuria may occur simultaneously, known as urinary tract irritation syndrome.
