Frequent Urination Treatment

IN DUBAI

Urination is your body’s natural process to get rid of waste fluids. Your kidney filters urea, uric acid, toxic and other wastes within the body and stores them inside your urinary bladder in the form of a liquid called urine. When the urine fills up to a certain point, your body expels the urine giving you that urge to urinate.

Frequent urination is a condition that increases the urinary frequency among people. The usual range of urination among people lies between 6 to 7 times daily. In Frequent Urination, the urge to urinate increases to the point that it becomes too uncomfortable to maintain a healthy life.

Diagnosis of frequent urination

Apart from that, the urologist may also suggest some tests, such as:

Cystometry: The test is conducted to analyse the working condition of your bladder. Complications often arise when a muscle or nerve in your bladder hinders it from holding or releasing urine.

Ultrasonography is an imaging test that allows the doctor to look at your body’s internal structure.

Urinalysis is a microscopic examination composed of various tests used to detect the compound that passes through your urine.

Cystoscopy: A screening procedure where the doctor looks inside your bladder and urethra for underlying conditions using a ‘cystoscope’ instrument.

Your doctor might look for symptoms like overactive bladder, urine inconsistency, blood in the urine, frequent urinary tract infections, narrowing in the urethra, and bladder abnormalities.

Neurological tests: The doctor uses this diagnosis procedure to ensure there is no presence of nerve disorder.
