Been on Ambien for a while, works wonders for me, started taking Straterra and I’ve noticed that I have the sudden urge to urinate during the day, to the point that sometimes I start going before I can even unzip. And at night, I’ve started waking up wet 2-3 nights a week. partially due to the fact that the Ambien makes it near impossible to wake up to use the bathroom. Bottom line is, I’m sleeping better, I can concentrate and focus and get things done at work, and I’m happy, do I deal with the bed wetting since it’s not that big of a deal? or do I stop the meds, and go back to being a miserable mess for the sake of holding my urine while I sleep. To pee? or not to pee?

I agree that a slight adjustment in the dosages of your current meds might be a way to relieve your bladder symptoms without sacrificing the benefit of your other meds. I’d suggest talking with your doctor about that option first.

Because you’re having urgency symptoms during the day as well as at night, it sounds like the combined meds are causing your bladder to contract uncontrollably at inappropriate times. Some of the meds designed for "overactive bladder" are supposed to help this very problem — so as long as there’s no adverse drug interaction problem, adding 1 more med to your list might help to calm your bladder down also. Your doctor and/or pharmacist should be able to enlighten you more about whether and to what extent those drugs are compatible with each other.

As for dealing with the bed wetting… I’ve dealt with that myself on occasion also (for reasons related to bladder development that I’ve had since birth), and although you’re right that it can be "not a big deal" if viewed in the right light, it can also be a very emotionally stressful event and I’m sure you would find it well worth dealing with, if a simple change in meds would do it. It may not be worth throwing away the benefits of your other meds, but then with the above options you may not have to. So why not try and see if you can have your cake and eat it too?

A 5 year old girl was molested only one time and wet the bed until the age of 10, can that have been caused by the molestation?

Yes.

Psychological issues (e.g., death in the family, sexual abuse, extreme bullying) are established as a cause of secondary nocturnal enuresis (bedwetting).

By the way, I’m not sure what to think about your account that she was molested "only one time".

If a person is shot "only one time", there is still injury.

What a sad, heavy topic.

ok, make fun of me, but for those of you who are mature enough, i need help.

why have i started wetting the bed all of a sudden? it happens constantly, like almost every couple of nights. it always happens the same way too, like, do you ever get those dreams where you’re going to the bathroom and you start peeing, and then half way you start to feel it get warm in your legs, and then bam, you’re like oh shit, and then you wake up.

i tried looking up the causes of bed wetting in adults. the thing that caught my attention first was stress. i just graduated from Marine Corps recruit training last friday. it was during boot camp that this problem started happening. it makes sense though, boot camp is a very stressfull environment. but im done with that, so i thought that problem, would be over. until it just happened about 5 minutes ago.

what is wrong with me? other things on the list of causes included problems with the urinary system, sleep disorders, and even diabetes (that one kinda scared me). so if it its stress, how do i keep this from happening? its not like i can just stop being stressed. should i go see a doctor? if so, what kind of doctor deals with this kind of stuff? i dont know what to do. someone help me please.

if you need more detailed information, just ask.
i looked up the symptoms of diabetes and found that some apply to me. frequent urination (i always had to go to the restroom, especially in boot camp), excessive hunger (i have never been this hungry all the time before

im only 19, so i hope its not that, and just stress.

Nocturnal enuresis (NE) or bedwetting is the involuntary voiding of urine during sleep
Nocturnal enuresis is not to be confused with nocturia or waking two or more times per night to void.

Adult Onset secondary enuresis is defined as nocturnal enuresis in which nighttime dryness is achieved at some point in life and, for some, dryness may have occurred for years, but nighttime wetting begins at an older age.

It must be understood that bedwetting is unintentional and is not something that can be voluntarily controlled at any age.

Causes:

Heredity
Nocturnal enuresis can occur due to genetic linkage. Though this is not true with all people, evidence has shown that bedwetting is hereditary.One study has shown that someone with two bedwetting parents has a 77% chance of becoming a bedwetter. When one parent wet the bed as a child, his son or daughter was found to have a 40% chance of becoming a bedwetter. These probabilities carry into adulthood as well.

Inadequate production of ADH hormone
Normally the body produces more ADH (or antidiuretic hormone) at night causing the kidneys to produce less urine.Decreased urine production at night allows people to sleep through the night without having to urinate. However, some people do not produce the appropriate amount of this hormone at night, which leads to high production of urine.

Type 2 Diabetes
This is very similar to a symptom related with Type II Diabetes where an ineffective amount of ADH is produced.

Nocturnal Polyuria
In other cases, the body produces ADH, but the kidneys do not respond and continue to produce the same amount of urine

Smaller Bladder or Functional Bladder Capacity
This does not mean, that the physical size of the bladder is actually smaller in nocturnal enuresis patients than in their peers. Instead, it means that their functional bladder capacity (FBC), the amount of urine the bladder will hold until sending a signal to the brain indicating it is time to urinate, is a smaller volume than that of their peers. The overactive contractions of the detrusor muscle indicate that the muscle is never fully relaxed and therefore the bladder capacity is not as large.

Detrusor muscle overactivity, or instability
Detrusor overactivity is spontaneous detrusor muscle contractions that may cause accidents. Many studies have found a high incidence of high incidence of detrusor instability with nocturnal enuresis.

Bladder irritants, such as alcohol and caffeine, can also contribute to detrusor instability, in addition to serving as diuretics that only increase urine production.

Side effects of some medications ;Obstructive sleep apnea or sleep disorders can cause nocturnal enuresis as well.

Adult onset nocturnal enuresis is often a result of problems with the urethra, such as prostatic or primary vesicle neck obstruction. Such problems can be associated with the prostate in men or pelvic organ prolapse in women.

Additional causes of secondary enuresis may also include diabetes, urinary tract infection, urinary tract stones, neurological disorders, anatomical abnormalities, urinary tract calculi, prostate cancer, prostate enlargement, bladder cancer, and obstructive sleep apnea. In very rare cases, acute anxiety or emotional disorder may cause adult bedwetting

Treatment
Behavioral Therapy
Monitoring Fluid Intake: Limiting intake of fluids in the late afternoon and evening before bedtime causes a decreased amount of urine produced at night
Learn to relax. Avoid Stress. meditate or do Yoga.
Bladder Volume Training: This technique is an effort to increase bladder capacity in those who have a small FBC. Kegel Exercises.
For men experiencing symptoms of enlarged prostate, consult a healthcare provider for behavioral therapy options, as bladder volume training can result in distending, or stretching, the bladder.

Bedwetting Alarm System: A bedwetting alarm is a device that awakens an individual from sleep as soon as the accident begins.

Waking: While this option does not treat the problem, it may be helpful in preventing a wet bed. It involves setting an alarm during the night at a random time in order to urinate.

Pharmacological Therapy
Different medicinal options exist to treat nocturnal enuresis. These may be used alone or combined with some of the behavioral treatments listed above, which generally has proven to be more effective.
Examples of meds are Desmopressin;Imipramine:and anticholinergic medications

Surgical Methods
Sacral Nerve Stimulation
Clam Cystoplasty
Detrusor Myectomy

Treatments Undergoing Testing
Botulinum Toxin A
Laser Acupuncture:

Management Options
Mattress Covers
Absorbent Briefs
Skincare Products

Nocturnal Enuresis may be the symptom of an underlying condition. If this is the case, successful treatment of the condition can result in achieving nighttime dryness. Please contact NAFC by going to www.nafc.org or call 1-800-BLADDER.

In addition to contacting NAFC, you should visit a healthcare provider to discuss symptoms and receive proper treatment.

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’.

My 13 year old daughter is repetedly wetting the bed, i am not sure if its cuased by urination because when she wakes up she is not wet herself but the bed is. Could this be because of perspiration and sweat? she has assured me on a number of occastions that she has not wet herself. This has never happened before in the past and has only started this year when we moved into our new house. She is now sleeping on a fold-out bed that we use when we go camping, this is better ventilation but the same thing is still occuring. When i wash her blankets they do not have a distinct smell, it is just a damp smell. i don’t know what is wrong, wether the reason for this bed wetting is caused by urination or sweat and perspiration, what should i do?

The obvious would be that she is stressed over the move to the new house and has started to wet the bed. Maybe she is having problems at school and is very nervous over it. What you could do is get her some pull ups, or incontinece underwear for her to wear. They have sizes, for children and women. You will be able to find a size for her. If her special underwear is wet and the rest of the bed is dry then it is likely she is wetting herself.

The article below is about night sweats.

http://www.brooksidepress.org/Products/OperationalMedicine/DATA/operationalmed/SickCall/NightSweats.htm

Scroll down the screen and you will find the start of the article. Your daughter probably needs a medical exam and some simple tests to see if she has condition that is causing the sweats.

I’m currently on Neurontin for nerve pain and Fioricet for headaches. I took both last night as prescribed. I wet the bed. It was so embarrasing. My boyfriend had to sleep on the couch because the bed was wet. I was wondering if these medications I’m on would cause bed wetting? Help! Please!

The urethra is a muscle that clenches when you sleep, making it so there is no bed wetting. If you are being treated for nerve pain,it’s likely that it is causing your muscles to relax, including the urethra, hence the bed wetting.
I’m not entirely sure about treatment. Try not to drink anything right before bed and you may have to wear something to protect your bed for a little while until you can train yourself out of this.
I’m so sorry, dear.
