Urination is the body’s natural process for eliminating toxins and maintaining fluid balance. Yet, if you notice yourself going to the bathroom too frequently, it could be a sign that something isn’t working properly. Medically, polyuria is when a person urinates more than 2.5 liters per day. Though in many cases it can be because of harmless factors, it could also be related to health problems that require attention.
Common Causes of Excessive Urinating
Excessive Fluid Consumption
Drinking large amounts of water or diuretic beverages such as tea, coffee, or alcohol can cause the kidneys to produce more urine.
Diabetes
Uncontrolled diabetes, especially type 2 diabetes, can cause frequent urination due to high blood glucose levels, which causes the body to try to eliminate excess sugar through urine.
Urinary Tract Infections
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) can irritate the bladder and lead to a frequent need to urinate, accompanied by burning or pain.
Taking Diuretic Medications
Certain medications, especially those used to treat high blood pressure, have a diuretic effect and increase urine production.
