Bed wetting- What causes adult bed wetting?

family member is 17
years old and continues to wet bed- help please.

This is what my parents did-
Nothing to drink after supper, including water.
A trip to the bathroom before going to bed.
Another when my parents went to bed.

Is he on any meds that induce sleep? He may not be ‘awake’ enough to wake up and go.

If all else fails, Depends would work until he ‘gets it’.

    It could be a number of different reasons.
    A senior citizen might wet their bed because of
    a very weak bladder; that could be your 17 year
    old’s problem, too.
    Or, he/she might be experiencing difficulties in
    going through puberty.

    WebMD.com is a very reputable newsletter, and
    would most likely be able to give you more than
    just a few very detailed answers.

    Good luck.
