This condition is often considered to be caused by chronic prostatitis and prostatic hyperplasia in men, who get up many times at night and do not urinate much. If in women, often consider neurogenic bladder, diabetes and other factors.
Chronic prostatitis is usually found in young men who are sexually active, while prostate enlargement is usually found in older men. The prostate gland is an age-dependent and hormone-dependent organ that grows larger with age.
The enlargement of the prostate in young people usually does not cause any sensation or symptoms, but the enlargement of the prostate in older people will cause increased urinary holding, frequent urination, difficulty in urination, or even inability to urinate on their own due to the gland’s compression of the posterior urethra, and in such cases, oral medications are needed to treat the condition, and when conservative treatments are still unable to alleviate the symptoms, surgical procedures will be required.
The most commonly used oral medications are Tamsulosin Hydrochloride Extended-Release Tablets, Tamsulosin Hydrochloride Extended-Release Capsules, Finasteride, and Prostasone. If symptoms do not improve with oral medication, surgery is recommended.
Neurogenic bladder is commonly caused by damage to the central or peripheral nerves that control urination, and bladder and urethral dysfunction, which can be manifested as getting up many times during the night and not urinating much. In addition, middle-aged and elderly diabetic patients often have excessive drinking and urination, especially nocturia.
If the situation of getting up many times at night and not urinating much is not relieved for a long time, you should consult a doctor as soon as possible, and actively diagnose and treat the problem, and the drugs should be applied under the guidance of a doctor.
