What is the cause of frequent urination in women?

Normal adults urinate 4-6 times during the day and 0-2 times at night, with a significant increase in the number of times called frequent urination, which is very common in female patients. The physiological factors are seen in female patients who drink a lot of water, take diuretic food or drugs orally, in addition to psychoneurotic psychogenic factors that cause frequent urination, generally manifesting as more and less at times, with obvious “signs” of mental effects. The frequency of urination caused by mental tension will not have serious consequences for your health. If the frequency of urination affects study, work or rest, psychological treatment and nerve-regulating medication are available. The most common pathological factor that causes frequent urination is inflammatory stimulation, such as acute cystitis, tuberculous cystitis, urethritis, pyelonephritis, vulvovaginitis, etc. There may also be reasons for frequent urination. With inflammatory stimulation, frequency, urgency and painful urination may occur simultaneously and are known as signs of urinary tract irritation. Reduced bladder capacity such as an occupied bladder lesion, compression by an enlarged uterus during pregnancy, tuberculous bladder contracture or larger bladder stones. Also overactive bladder syndrome is mainly manifested as frequent urination. Once the frequency of urination occurs, women should first go for a routine urine and urinary ultrasound examination and a urodynamic examination if possible. If the cause is identified, the treatment will be appropriate.
