Adult enuresis, also known as adult bedwetting, is a condition in which an adult unintentionally urinates during sleep. This can be a distressing and embarrassing problem, and can have a significant impact on an individual's quality of life.
There are several potential causes of adult enuresis, including:
Diagnosis of adult enuresis typically involves a thorough medical history and physical exam, as well as urine tests and imaging studies to rule out underlying medical conditions.
Treatment for adult enuresis may include medication, such as desmopressin, which can help reduce urine production during sleep. Other treatments may include bladder training exercises, lifestyle modifications, and counseling to address any underlying psychological factors that may be contributing to the problem.
It is important for individuals with adult enuresis to work closely with their healthcare provider to determine the underlying cause of their condition and develop an effective treatment plan. With appropriate treatment, many individuals with adult enuresis can achieve significant improvement in their symptoms and quality of life.
