[ad_1]

Why do I have to pee so much? It's a far more common complaint than a lot of people realise. There are many causes, some more serious than others. Here are some of the more common reasons.

Diabetes
If you have undiagnosed diabetes, this is a very common reason for excessive urination and one of the most usual early symptoms of the disease. If the body's blood sugar level rises, then the system attempts to excrete this sugar in the urine. This in turn gives rise to excessive thirst, and consequently more urination. If you go to see your doctor and ask him 'why do I have to pee so much?' one of the very first things he will do is to perform a very simple test for diabetes.

Cystitis
This in an infection of the urinary tract, and can cause excessive urination and also a burning sensation when you pass water. It can affect both men and women, but women are more susceptible due to a shorter urethra and the fact that it is closer to the anus, hence the higher likely hood of bacteria contaminating the urinary tract. If the infection gets too bad, then the bladder can also become infected. You may need a course of antibiotics to get rid of cystitis.

Alcohol and coffee
Both of these beverages can increase your urination. Coffee contains caffeine which is a diuretic - this means it encourages liquids to make a quick passage through the body. If you drink these in excess before bed time, then it is very likely you will wake up in the night needing to pass water.

These are three common causes for excessive urination. However, there are many other reasons and you may well have to seek medical advice to find out the answer to why do I have to pee so much?
