Suggest Treatment For Bed Wetting
Question: My husband is 21 years old and has peed the bed twice now in the last 6 months. He said the last time that he did that he was a child. What could be the reason?
Brief Answer:
Please provide additional medical data of husband
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I have gone through the medical history of your husband and understood your concerns.
There are many factors causing bed wetting twice in the last 6 months, but first I need to have more of your husband's medical data:
- has he ever done an urine analysis and been treated for urinary tract infection?
- has he measured his blood sugar levels? Is he having problems with diabetes?
- is he used to drink alcohol?
- is he taking any medication recently?
- does he consume too much coffee/energetic drinks?
- is he going through a stressful life-period?
- do you remember if he had any new food/drink the night when bed-wetting?
To determine the reason, further tests are needed:
- urine analysis and culture/sensitivity testing
- abdominal ultrasound
- physical/neurological examinations
Depending on the test results, specific treatment will be prescribed.
Looking forward to have the requested data in!
Thank you!

Brief Answer:
Further examination of uro-genital tract needed...
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
At this point, I highly suggest to ask him:
- run the above-mentioned tests to check for uro-genital problems
- not to consume water or other drinks at dinner
- try to control stress/anxiety. Chamomile /valeriana tea have been of help for some of my patients. He can try and see if that works for him too.
All the best!
