What Causes Frequent Urination And Extreme Thirst?
I have a 24 year old son who is experiencing frequent urination - 3-5 during the night and when he wakes up he feels thirty despite the fact this he is drinking a lot of water - 3-4 33 oz bottles of water daily. This has been going on for about 2 - 3 weeks
Hello dear I understand your concern Your symptoms could be due to diabetes, cold environment. I would suggest to go for following investigations to rule out diabetes: Fasting and post meal blood sugar, urine tests-routine and microscopic test. If investigations will come normal then nothing to worry about. Avoid liquid drink 2-3 hour before going to bed Do urination before going to bed avoid caffeinated drink/product Avoid stress, take healthy diet, do regular exercise. Hope this may help you
