Urination more than avrage tried few counter meds and also consulted few doctors - #10203

Thanks for sharing, Kishan. At age 26, new-onset frequent urination over the past 3–4 months — especially when routine tests are normal and medicines only help temporarily — strongly suggests a non-infectious cause

Here’s a clear and short step-by-step guide for your situation:

Likely Causes for You:

1. Bladder Irritation (from stimulants):

* Tea, coffee, smoking, cold drinks — all irritate the bladder. * They increase frequency even if kidneys and bladder are normal.

2. Overactive Bladder (OAB):

* Bladder muscles become overly sensitive, urge to urinate often even with little urine. * Not seen in reports — diagnosed by symptoms.

3. Stress or Anxiety-Related:**

* Mental stress often affects bladder nerves. * Common in young males, especially with irregular sleep or lifestyle.

4. Non-bacterial prostatitis or pelvic tension * Prostate irritation without infection — causes urinary frequency, pelvic discomfort, and urgent

What You Should Do 1.STOP Stimulants for 2 Weeks:

* No tea/coffee/smoking/cold drinks. * Only plain water (2.5–3L per day), spaced out evenly. 2. Try These Home Approaches:

*Bladder training:Delay urination by 10–15 min slowly, even when urge starts. * Pelvic relaxation: Sit calmly, do deep belly breathing 2–3×/day. * Avoid holding urine too long, but don’t rush to toilet every time . 3.Medicines Consult Urologist 4. Advanced Tests (if it continues):

* Bladder ultrasound * Uroflowmetry * Prostate check (even if you’re young)

Go to a doctor again

* Burning while urinating develops. * Blood in urine. * Severe pelvic pain or fever. Final Advice: Since you’re young and reports are normal, don’t panic — it’s manageable. Focus on:

* Lifestyle detox (no stimulants), * Bladder retraining, * Consulting a urologist not just general doctors.

Frequent urination can stem from various causes, and narrowing it down requires a thorough look at your specific situation. Given that you’ve been dealing with it for several months, it’s essential to consider both common and less common causes. The most straightforward reasons might be increased fluid intake, particularly caffeine or alcohol, which are known diuretics. Diabetes — both Type 1 and Type 2 — can result in increased urination due to high blood sugar levels, so getting your blood sugar checked would be a wise step. Additionally, a urinary tract infection (UTI) or bladder irritation could be culprits, but these typically present with additional symptoms like burning, discomfort, or perhaps cloudy urine. If you haven’t already, a urine test can rule out these infections or any abnormalities. In men, also consider benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) if you’re middle-aged or older as this can cause urinary frequency. Some medications and dietary supplements can also affect your urinary habits, so reviewing your current medications with a healthcare provider can clarify if they might play a role. Consider, too, lifestyle factors like stress or anxiety, as they can incidentally lead to frequent urination. If none of these align with your situation, or your symptoms persist or worsen, a referral to a specialist such as a urologist or endocrinologist could be necessary to explore more complex conditions affecting bladder function or hormone levels. Prioritize follow-ups with healthcare providers to ensure a comprehensive evaluation through blood tests, imaging studies, or bladder function tests, especially if there’s any pain, hematuria, or fever present, which could suggest more serious conditions. Being proactive with these steps and maintaining an open dialogue with your doctor can effectively guide you toward identifying and treating the underlying cause of your symptoms.
