Summary
Story at-a-glance
- Frequent urination (more than eight times daily) often signals underlying health issues like urinary tract infections (UTIs), diabetes, prostate problems or medication side effects rather than simply aging
- Tracking your fluid intake and urination patterns with a bladder diary reveals triggers and helps identify whether the cause is behavioral, neurological, hormonal or inflammatory
- UTIs are a common cause of urinary frequency; pharmaceutical-grade methylene blue and cranberry products are often helpful before resorting to antibiotics
- Neurological conditions, emotional stress, anxiety and depression disrupt brain-bladder signaling; this contributes to urinary frequency
- Natural solutions include adjusting when you drink fluids, addressing constipation, supporting prostate health, strengthening pelvic floor muscles and treating underlying conditions like UTIs and anxiety
