It is normal for seventy year olds to urinate 0-2 times a night. Without excessive drinking, more than two times or less than the normal frequency, may be an abnormal health condition.
In general, for adults, it is normal to get up once or not at all at night, or even twice at night.
In terms of human urination, the normal urine output of an adult is between 1500 ml and 2000 ml a day. Even if you are getting up at night, as long as it is within the range of the total urinary output for the whole day, your body is healthy and you don’t have to worry about it. In addition, drinking a lot of water before going to bed will lead to an increase in the number of night risers, which is also normal.
However, if there are more than two frequent night risings, attention should be paid. With age, the elderly are prone to prostate hyperplasia, urinary tract infections and other urinary tract diseases, leading to frequent urination and urgency in elderly patients.
In daily life, it is recommended to reduce water consumption before going to bed, ensure sufficient sleep time, pay attention to rational arrangement of diet and reduce salt intake. If the elderly appear to frequently get up at night, urinary frequency and urgency and other symptoms, should go to the hospital in time for examination, clear cause and cooperate with the doctor to carry out appropriate treatment.
