"Urologist's 3 Tips to Prevent Overnight Urination"
Urologist Dr. Edward Schaeffer shared three tips to help reduce nighttime urination. He advised avoiding drinking a lot of liquids before bed, especially those with diuretic properties like caffeine. Alcohol should also be avoided before bed as it inhibits the release of an anti-diuretic hormone. Additionally, wearing knee-high stockings can help reduce fluid retention in the legs, which can contribute to frequent nighttime urination. These behavioral modifications can potentially reduce nocturnal urinary frequency without the need for multiple medications.
