Brief Answer:
Limit liquid intake during day time only.

Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXX and welcome to HCM.
As an Urologist,i can understand your concern.

Your girlfriend certainly has a problem.
She can drink fluids in the daytime and stop drinking after about 8 p.m.
She should drink about 8-10 glasses fluids daily.
See if this changes and resolves her problem. If it persists after a week to 10 days,
she will need to do certain tests and see an Urologist.

1. urine routine and culture.
2. blood routine,creatinine,RBS,LFT,and platelets.
3. Ultrasound scan -KUB,with residual urine.

Her reports may be sent here,for an expert opinion.
