As men and women grow older, they are at increased risk for nocturia, a condition marked by frequent nighttime urination. If your sleep is routinely interrupted two, three or more times each night by hurried trips to the bathroom, you should consult a physician without delay, advises Christopher Saigal, MD, a urologist at UCLA Medical Center. Often, he points out, this frustrating, sleep-depriving disorder may be eased, to an extent, through simple behavioral changes--avoiding the consumption of liquids before bedtime, for example. In other cases, however, nocturia may signal the presence of a serious systemic disorder requiring prompt medical attention.
