Common Causes of Frequent Urination
One of the main causes of excessive urination is diabetes. High blood sugar forces the kidneys to filter more water, leading to increased urination. Urinary tract infections are another frequent culprit, as they irritate the bladder lining and trigger sudden urges. Overactive bladder syndrome also causes frequent and urgent trips to the bathroom due to involuntary muscle contractions.
Pregnancy can naturally increase urination because hormonal changes and the growing uterus put pressure on the bladder. Certain medications, especially diuretics, can increase urine production as well. Finally, excessive intake of fluids, caffeine, or alcohol temporarily increases trips to the bathroom.
