Avatar m tn I saw a question about frequent urination and stress. I wanted to add this comment. I was having severe frequent urination problems. I went to several doctors and even the Mayo Clinic. I was eventually diagnosed with "chronic prostatitis." Not wanting to give up because of the problems it was causing me, I looked at stress as the possible cause. I went to a psychologist for biofeedback training -- relaxation training -- and after 3 or 4 weeks my symptoms subsided.
Avatar f tn I had the worst excessive urination from low potassium. I lived in the toilet and was getting splits on my skin down there from constantly using toilet paper. I was using Savlon cream to relieve the pain. The relief of orange juice! High in potassium. Went from excessive urination to normal OVERNIGHT! Low potassium causes dry skin too btw.
Avatar m tn The one STD which might be associated with urinary frequency is non-gonococcal urethritis, which is diagnosed by demonstration of increased numbers of white blood cells in a urine specimen collected at the beginning of urination or in a urethral swab from the penis. In both cases you should not have urinated for at least an hour before your specimen is collected. You could have this done at your local STD clinic for little if any cost.
Avatar f tn Urinary tract (which consists of the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and the urethra) infections are very common in young women. Symptoms of UTI are frequent urination, burning sensation during urination, passing of blood in urine and even fever. The most common causes of repeated UTIs are kidney stones and diabetes mellitus. Women who are sexually active, who use diaphragms for birth control, and/or are past menopause are at an increased risk for urinary tract infections.
Avatar f tn I have frequent urination (every hr) and burning urethra (sometimes when I am dehydrated) for 4 months now.I have gone thru 20 days of levo,20 days of cipro,1.5gm of azithromycin and finally Cystoscopy 5 weeks back. The result in cystoscopy said mild chronic cystitis.I have been taken vesicare and xatral for 40 days now.I went to see the urologist again and he said he cannot pinpoint what is the root cause yet and it should clear on its own in 1-2 months.
Avatar n tn A cystoscopy can always be done to look for any local causes for the same. An infection in the prostate could be a culprit in the same. Hence, a rectal examination can also help in picking up the chronic prostatitis which can give rise to the symptoms which you’ve mentioned. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care.
Avatar m tn Reflux of sterile urine (urine without bacteria) through the ejaculatory ducts may cause inflammation with obstruction. In children, it may be a response following an infection with enterovirus, adenovirus or Mycoplasma pneumoniae. Epididymitis can also be caused by genito-urinary surgery, including prostatectomy and urinary catheterization. Congestive epididymitis is a long-term complication of vasectomy.[3][4] Chemical epididymitis may also result from drugs such as amiodarone.

Avatar n tn Symptoms of UTI are frequent urination, burning sensation during urination, passing of blood in urine and even fever.

Making a diagnosis of a urinary tract infection includes performing a urinalysis test, which checks for the presence of pus, white blood cells, and bacteria in the urine, which point to a urinary tract infection.
Avatar n tn Asmik, We are volunteers and not medical professionals. You've taken the right step by keeping careful records of how she feels and what she's eating. Common symptoms for Type 1 diabetes include frequent urination, insatiable thirst &/or hunger, unexplained weight loss, sometimes lethargy and vision changes. Depending on your daughter's age and general activity levels, the doctor might well evaluate stress (stress can be around food/eating).
Avatar m tn There can be worms or parasitic infestation of the urinary bladder causing schistosomiasis which is infection with a type of Schistosoma parasite but it causes frequent urination, painful urination (dysuria), and blood in the urine as its urinary symptoms. I suggest you to get your urinalysis taken and a complete blood count also. The presence of parasites can be detected based on the increased levels of eosinophils in the blood.
Avatar f tn I already know I have Herpes 2, but am not back in the US so I can get on medication. I have frequent nighttime urination which is caused by the Herpes 2 ( i had done a bacteria urine test and it was negative) . I just wondered, when I get on Valtrex will it take care of the frequent urination at night or do I need to get other medication for that? Anyone out there ever experience it. I think a lot of persons come here for support, not just because they are worried they might be infected.
Avatar m tn Benign prostate enlargement is common in older men, yes it does lead to more frequent urination but has nothing to do with there being a cancerous condition (prostates just get larger with age and can start being a nuisance when they press on nerves).
60890 tn?1366358119 Hi, I'd like to know from ladies that are pregnant or can remember...did you have symptoms before you got your bfp or not? What I've tried to recall with my first 2 children I honestly don't remember symptoms now as they are 6 and nearly 5...but with my 3rd I had the frequent urination, sore boobs and tiredness.
Avatar f tn m exclusively breastfeeding. And at the same time has frequent urination? Can anyone,experience this kind of symptoms during breastfeeding?
139792 tn?1498585650 Since you are faking sleep using the drug, which is a Central Nervous System suppressor, at least in your case, I would think that the drug alprozolam may be preventing brain from producing ADH, which in turn causes the frequent urination. I could not get any supporting document from the net, but it does say that it can cause inappropriate ADH production, which could mean either MORE or LESS of ADH production.

Avatar n tn Today - my frequent urination is gone, testes aren't sore anymore. I am going to the doctor.
Avatar n tn Sorry hit the button too quickly, my children had tonsilitis they had fevers regularly , it may be good to ask the Doctor about it, there have also been last year and this year many more children sicker in fact 20% ..so there are possibly more virus and more environmental issues , does your child have any other symptoms ?
Avatar n tn In fibroids a woman will have backache, frequent urination, pain in legs, painful sex, heavy painful periods etc.Ovarian cysts can cause irregular menstrual bleeding, lower abdominal pain, pain on urination and pelvic pain after sex.It is essential to rule out the above mentioned causes. Seek the opinion of a gynecologist. A complete examination and work up is important. Hope it helps. Best luck and regards!
Avatar m tn thanks for responses !
Avatar n tn Pollakiuria is defined as frequent daytime urination that may occur as often as every 5 minutes, although usually the child urinates 3-4 times/hour. This is a common pediatric complaint and the parents are usually concerned that their child has diabetes mellitus or a UTI. The majority of children are between 4-6 years of age. Pollakiuria is more common than urinary tract infections in children. Symptoms may last for years, but the average length is 7-12 months. Frequent characteristics: 1.
