Brief Answer:
You need evaluation.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your question.
Noted your concern.

Frequent urination in such scenario may be due to - Urinary infection - Diabetes & BHP both are risk factors for urinary infection.
- Uncontrolled blood sugar levels which leads to osmotic diuresis causing frequent urination.

In such cases I may suggest following tests -
- Blood sugar levels - Fasting, Post-prandial, HbA1c.
If blood sugar levels under control then
- Complete blood count.
- Urine examination including Urine culture & sensitivity (sample collection with sterile technique)
- Renal function test.

Depending upon these test results appropriate treatment & further evaluation if required can be planned.

Hope this helps you.
