Frequent urination before falling asleep
My bladder is pretty sensitive, I feel a need to urinate when there is even a little bit of urine in there. Its not too bad during the day because I'm distracted by other things, but it gets incredibly annoying at night! I keep going to bathroom every 10-15 min to squeeze out few little drops... Some days this keeps me awake for hours. If i do fall asleep, then ill keep sleeping no problem. I've had this problem forever, and even had some urine test done which didnt show anything wrong. Is it all just on my head? Or is my bladder really more sensitive? What can i do to help it? Thanks!
I always have to go to the bathroom. Even during the night. I have an enlarged uterus that pushes on my bladder. Try kegel exercises.
Who can benefit from Kegel exercises? Anyone, at any age, who suffers urinary incontinence or leaks urine. While the exercise mainly helps those with stress urinary incontinence, it can also help those with another common type, urge incontinence from overactive bladder. With urge incontinence, you have a sudden urge to urinate and don't always make it to the bathroom. Men with urinary incontinence problems can do Kegel exercises, too. Studies on men have shown that these exercises improve urinary incontinence that can happen after prostate surgery.
How are Kegel exercises done? To exercise the pelvic floor muscle, pretend you are trying to stop the flow of urine. Pull in and squeeze those muscles. Hold the squeeze for about 10 seconds, then rest for 10 seconds. Try for three or four sets of 10 contractions every day.
How do Kegel exercises help? Kegel exercises strengthen the muscles that help control the urethra. When these muscles are weak, the result can be urinary incontinence.
When should I expect to see results from my Kegels? Just as it takes time to build your biceps and strengthen any other muscles, it takes time to strengthen muscles in the pelvic floor. Give the Kegel exercises three to six weeks. And remember, you must keep doing them, and you should do them daily.
When and where should I do Kegel exercises? The beauty of Kegels is that you can really do them just about anywhere, anytime. No one would know unless you tell them what you are doing. Try doing a few sets of Kegels when you are in your car, sitting at your desk, or watching TV. To be sure you are doing Kegels correctly, ask your doctor or the nurse to describe the proper form. They can also check that you are doing them correctly. (Or google how to)
