Research Notes on Frequent Urination Causes in Men
Frequent urination is the need to urinate more often than normal. Symptoms may include sudden urges to urinate, bladder discomfort, or frequent needs to urinate at night. Common causes of frequent urination in men are interstitial cystitis, overactive bladder syndrome, prostatitis, or enlarged prostate.1 Bladder control can also be affected by diabetes.2
Fast Facts:
- Less common causes are bladder cancer, or as the result of radiation therapy.1
- An overactive bladder, where the bladder squeezes at the wrong time, can be caused by nerve problems or injury.2
