Waking up to urinate at night becomes more common after 60—but how many bathroom trips are actually too many?
In this video, we explain nighttime urination, also called nocturia, and why repeatedly waking two, three, or four times a night may be worth paying attention to. You’ll learn how evening fluids, caffeine, prostate changes, blood sugar, medications, leg swelling, bladder problems, and even sleep apnea may affect nighttime urination.
We’ll also cover simple habits that may help, what to track in a bladder diary, how to make nighttime bathroom trips safer, and which urinary symptoms should be discussed with a healthcare professional.
