frequent urination at night - #17267
For the past few weeks, I’ve been waking up multiple times during the night to urinate, which is starting to affect my sleep. At first, I thought it was just due to drinking too much water before bed, but even after adjusting my fluid intake, I’m still experiencing frequent urination at night. Sometimes, I can’t even fall back asleep after using the bathroom, which leaves me feeling tired and groggy the next day. I went to the doctor, and they mentioned that frequent urination at night could be linked to a variety of conditions, including urinary tract infections, bladder issues, or even diabetes. They suggested running some tests to check my blood sugar levels and kidney function, but I’m still unsure about the cause. I’m also a bit worried about the long-term impact of this issue on my overall health. Since I prefer natural remedies, I started looking into Ayurveda. Does Ayurveda explain frequent urination at night in a different way? I’ve heard that this could be related to an imbalance in the doshas, especially excess Vata or Pitta, which might affect kidney function or lead to overactive bladder. Could this be linked to an imbalance in digestion or toxins building up in the body? Are there Ayurvedic remedies that can help reduce frequent urination at night? I’ve read that herbs like Gokshura, Punarnava, and Shatavari are used to support kidney health and urinary function—do they actually help with nocturia, and how should they be used? If anyone has experienced frequent urination at night and found relief through Ayurveda, what worked best for you? Did lifestyle changes, herbal treatments, or specific exercises help regulate urination patterns? I’m looking for natural ways to manage this without relying on medications.
