Brief Answer:
urinary tract infection

Detailed Answer:
Hello!

Thank you for the query.

Such symptom is usually caused by urinary tract infection. It is more possible if you also have burning while urinating, lower abdominal pain or trace of blood in urine.

If you also need to drink a lot, frequent urinating can be a symptom of high blood sugar level.

I suggest you to start with urine analysis an glucose blood level. In case of infection, antibiotics are necessary.

Hope this will help. Feel free to ask further questions. Regards.
