Frequent Urination at Night? Try These Remedies!

by Francine Kanter Classical Homeopathy by Francine Kanter

If you feel the urge to urinate more than once every night, you may have an overactive bladder (and not acute OAB). The condition is also termed nocturia, and most patients, especially men over the age of 50s, complain of having to wake up frequently during bed-time.

The reason why someone may develop nocturia could be due to the following:

  • Consuming more water than usual
  • Body making too much urine
  • Unrestricted alcohol/ caffeine consumption
  • The bladder is unable to hold the urine
  • Enlarged prostate
  • Medications
  • Bladder inflammation
  • Pregnancy
  • Diabetes

Once the precise causes are known, correct treatment can be suggested by a qualified physician. If you are looking for some natural remedies to treat the condition alongside prescribed medications, here are a few tried and tested cures that offer relief to a great extent:

Equisetum Hyemale

If you observe a larger volume of urine at night, Equisetum Hyemale will work best for you. Urinating heavily at night is one of the most visible and frustrating symptoms of nocturia. The remedy is also useful if you feel the urge to urinate all of a sudden or intolerably. Besides, if you feel a shooting pain or bladder distention while passing urine, Equisetum Hyemale is the topmost preferred remedy in homeopathy.

Lycopodium

This medication stands as the best amongst all other remedies suggested in homeopathy for frequent urination. The urine may be scanty, night aggravating is observed, urine may vary in color (pale, foamy, or milky), and severe backache is experienced just before urinating. A few characteristic features, including the feeling of constipation, gas, belching, and the constant desire to eat sweet foods or have warm drinks, may accompany the condition.

Cantharis and Merc Cor

These are other best homeopathic remedies for nocturia with burning sensation and constant desire to pass urine. Cantharis is advised if the burning sensation is present before, after, and during urination. Merc Cor, however, is suggested to be used if the burning sensation occurs only before urination. If you notice blood in the urine, UTI, or drop by drop urine passage, Cantharis and Merc Cor may be beneficial.

Staphysagria

Medications such as this one, along with Sabal Serrulata and Lycopodium, are of great help in case of prostate enlargement related urination. The remedy is useful if you feel the urge to pass urine regardless of experiencing any pain. It is also beneficial if you observe backache and constant pressure to urinate while burning sensation being the primary symptom.

Besides the solutions mentioned above, make sure to regulate your fluid intake. Avoid using any diuretics. Sleep warm and comfortably to prevent cold-induced urination. Herbs such as witch hazel, horsetail, saw palmetto, and yarrow is also helpful if you have an overactive bladder. Focus on increasing your antioxidant intake if aging is the major cause of nocturia. These alternative cures would rarely cause any harmful side effects on your condition and would aid your current treatment.
