Top Causes of Bedwetting in Adults

March 1, 2021 / by Andrew / Leave a Comment

Bedwetting in adults is usually caused by incontinence, making it hard for your bladder to hold urine for an extended period of time. There can be a number of reasons why it happens. But there are treatment options available, and other ways to cope with incontinence.

In this short guide, we’ll show the reasons why incontinence happens and how to treat it.

What Causes Betweeting in Adults?

There are various things that can cause occasional bedwetting in adults including:

  • Stress
  • Neurological Disorders
  • Medication
  • Genetics
  • Over Active Bladder Disorder
  • Etc.

This is not an exhaustive list of causes by far but they are some of the most common. There are some less common causes as well like dream induced bedwetting.

Stress and Neurological Disorders

Stress, strokes, Parkinson’s Disease, and other disorders can cause some adults to be incontinent especially at night. This is a pretty common side effect of these disorders so you are not alone.

Medication

There are certain medications, particularly insomnia medications, that can cause incontinence as a side effect. If this is the case you can easily talk to your doctor about changing your dosage or trying another prescription.

Genetics

Believe it or not, your genes may be to blame for your bedwetting. Many studies have shown that if one parent had or has trouble with bedwetting their children will more than likely have the same issue.

Over Active Bladder Disorder

In some cases, you might have bedwetting troubles because your bladder’s muscles are overactive. With this condition sometimes your muscles squeeze too often or at the wrong time.

How to Treat Bedwetting

There are ways that can make living with incontinence much easier. For example, making lifestyle changes, talking to your doctor, taking medication, and preparing for possible bedwetting.

Prepare for Accidents

One of the reasons incontinence can be so impactful on your life is unexpected accidents. You can lessen the impact by considering options like a waterproof mattress, incontinence pads, or underwear.

Talk to Your Doctor

When you’re preparing to talk to your doctor be prepared to answer questions. They’ll want to know how often it happens how much you urinate at one time, and what you drink before bed and how often.

Together you and your doctor can come up with an effective treatment plan. Like medication, or surgery in some cases.

Lifestyle Changes

By changing your lifestyle you can take control of your incontinence as well. There are yoga poses that have been shown to be effective in helping with bedwetting. You can also refrain from drinking about an hour before bedtime and reducing the amount of caffeine and alcohol you consume.

While these can help mild cases, be sure to still talk to your doctor about any concerns you may have.
