5-6 times/day!!. I pee at least 3times/hour every hour in the day time and about 3-4 times/night. And I consume around 5liters of water.

[veronicaivanova]

I drink so much water, I probably go every hour 😃

[boomerrangerron]

Great video, and I was just wondering if in older me who are experiencing some enlarged prostates, and assuming they hydrate frequently throughout the day, they'd have the urge to go more frequently. What do you think?

[domingodeanda]

That depends on how much water I drink. I avoid (when we go out on a 20 hr drive fishing trip) drinking until we stop to eat.

Hello Dr. Malik,
Once again very informative video. If possible can you do a video on the most extreme cases you or your colleagues had to treat if possible. Thank you.

[TheOnlyTaps]

I pee a helluva lot, a combination of being diabetic but also drinking so much water throughout the day. I used to be super worried about it, but I've come to accept it. It only ever properly bothered me when I used to wake up multiple times at night because of it but now I only wake up maybe once or twice at night.

Very informative video 👊🏿💯

[andrewwilliamson]

What would be considered polyuria and how would you recommend treating it?

[AJ-cdox]

I only drink max 3 cups of water a day. Some days I pee 12 times in 12hours. It wakes me up of course too, every 2-3 hours. It lasted for 5-6 months, then it improved a lot, for 1-2 months, now its stated again. I've had various blood tests and a bladder ultrasound, everything is fine, apparently. And, I'm weeing a decent amount too each time, , so basically producing so much urine. Many times my wee is quite clear too. I go more in the evenings. Driving me mad

[lastgoodnerves]

Just stumbled onto your video as I was running to the bathroom..lol. Can you do a segment on diabetes and E.D?

[JackgarPrime]

I drink a lot of water, so I tend to go a decent amount. But when I go the most is during my resistance training sessions, since I drink a lot between sets, and I'll often drink a caffeine based pre-workout beforehand.

[jamesodonnell]

Asa suggested topic for an informational short, could you tell us about the "O shot"? Background, intent, purpose, does it work?

[lynze]

For me it's a minimum of 10 times a day. I also don't drink much either. I have told doctors before and they just shrug it off.

Hello,

Would you be able to do an informative video of lichen schlerosis in women and men, please?

Thank you!

Urination frequency can have many sources. Thus regular physicals and urine test are significant for overall health. Also urine coloration is a good indicator of bladder and urethra health. ✌🏿
