Endocrinologist 's  Response
Hi,

I can understand you concern but you need some exams to find a cause of your frequent urination. You need to check a glucose level and HbA1c to exclude diabetes. A urine sample will detect a urinary infection. BUN and creatinine will give information regarding to renal function. If they result within the normal ranges, insipid diabetes should be the next probable diagnosis.

Hope the information will be helpful. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Kind regards,
Dr. Mirjeta
