Earlier today, a thread (https://www.nairaland.com/6820409/how-stop-23-year-old-girlfriend-bed-wetting#107062106) surfaced on the frontpage of this forum about a 23-year-old who is still bedwetting. The thread was created to candidly seek a solution for her condition. I decided to create this thread and help shine light on possible causes of why she is bedwetting and solutions she should try her hands on. Is Bedwetting Normal for Adults? Many are of the view that bedwetting happens to children only. Also known as nocturnal enuresis, bedwetting is also a nocturnal problem that adults can grapple with. About 2% of adults still wet their beds. Grown-ups can wake up to bed sheets soaked with their urine and deal with the embarrassment that follows. Causes There are many causes that could lead an adult into bedwetting. They include the following: Hormonal Imbalance: The body produces antidiuretic hormone (ADH) to signal the body to produce less urine at night. When its secretion is imbalanced, the volume of urine produced will be too much for the bladder to hold, hence, the involuntary urination and wetting the sheets. Diabetes: When the pancreas doesn't secret enough insulin to process ingested glucose, it increases urine production and bedwetting at night. Alcohol/Caffeine Intake: Alcohol and caffeine are diuretic in nature. They cause huge production of urine. Taking alcohol or caffeinated drink before hitting the hay leads to increased volume of urine than the bladder can hold. Weak Bladder Control: Children before the age of 5 are known to wet their beds because they don't have a strong control of their bladder. Some grown-ups still don't have a firm grip on their bladder movement. Consequently, this makes them have urinary incontinence at night. Genetics: If a parent or relative had similar bedwetting issue, their is a huge chance that a child sharing similar family history will replicate it. Other causes are urinary tract infection, small bladder size, and prostate gland enlargement. Treatments Limit liquid intake at night: Hours before going to bed, ensure that you do not to drink water or any liquid content. This ensures that your bladder is relatively empty before bed. Avoid Caffeinated or Alcoholic Drinks at Night: Giving alcoholic and caffeinated drinks a wide berth at night enables your body to produce less urine. A moderate amount of urine that your bladder can hold back while you sleep will be produced. Empty Your Bladder Before Sleeping: Before you go to bed, make sure that you urinate so as to have your bladder almost empty. Take Anti-diabetic Drugs: Taking anti-diabetic helps secrete insulin to process the body glucose and lower urine production at night. There you have it! From the treatments discussed above, one can see that it takes lifestyle adjustment to nip bedwetting as a grown up in the bud. The sheer lack of discipline to turn a new leaf coupled with a weak bladder control mostly results in bedwetting for adults. Note that applying these treatment tips may not be effective instantly but they will surely work as time goes on. I hope adults still bedwetting will learn one or two things from this write-up and arrest their nocturnal iniquity. |
Ronaldo's encounters against Liverpool as a United player has mostly left him with a bitter taste in the mouth. Today's is the most bitter. |
Liverpool are out for United's blood. One can tell from the look on Arnold's face after his effort towards goal was parried out of play. |
Pogba the supposed savior to keep Manchester United from drowning further from this show of shame has plunged them deeper into it. Why am I getting a vibe off United players that they are playing to get Ole receive the axe? |
Please eh, if Manchester United can't afford the alleged increased wage demand by Salah, I can sell some of my generational plots of lands to help them keep this bloke at the club. He's just too good ![]() |
Ronaldo is really getting frustrated of recent. At his age he's so petulant like an infant. |
N2B2:Hahahahaha. I'm serious. Ole is just the manager they need. ![]() |
Liverpool has a profound reputation of helping Manchester United management show their managers the exit door. After they were instrumental in Mourinho's sacking they might help send Ole packing too ![]() |
Ole is not going anywhere o. He's the right manager to steer Manchester United back to their glory days. ![]() |
Faber:Outright not outrightly |
Almaigaa:Is it not so intellectually retarding to stereotype a tribe off the attitude of one person? |
What if some parts of the Bible are just perceptions and philosophies of certain individuals that are made to appear credible with the notion that they are Holy Spirit inspired? |
Omo see meat o. Blame python programmers sha. Ever since many started learning python programming language, the real pythons started coming out to ....... Lemme put out my joint fess |

Treat them to a dinner or deliver an appreciation speech to them if you ain't financial buoyant. |
Sycophancy is a very dangerous illness. Nigeria is one of the worst creation of man. Someone should get this man's face out of Buhari's ass before the putrid smell suffocates him. |

To the liberals supporting the second lady's choice of outfit, I dey hail una o. Western liberals wannabes. This is how the madness they are dealing with over there began. The slogan was 'it's their body. Allow them do whatever they want with it.' Now they are wanting to change their gender, pronouns, and perpetuating all sort of sickening liberal ideologies. Make una well done o. We shall get there ![]() |
jaeyking:R-Kelly and Adam Johnson are guilty as charged. We're not yet sure about Johnny Depp's. |
SarkinYarki:The 'e' no belong to them sha. |
This game is reminiscent of Copa America. So much physicality. |
walkbrazil4k:My bad. Thought you were advocating for prostitution legalization in Nigeria. How does Nigeria have higher prevalence rate than Brazil? |
walkbrazil4k:Oga liberalism I wan ask you some questions o. Do you know the HIV infection rate in Brazil? Do you know the premarital pregnancy rate in Brazil? Do you know the Brazil rape rate? If you know the answers to these questions you won't come here to champion legalization of prostitution in Nigeria. Because that will be tantamount to living out the Igbo axiom that when a child is encouraged by a parent to steal, they will do it with effrontery. Please we have more pressing issues than women being allowed to wear bum shots or not or legalizing akwuna. |
That's their headache, not mine. Meanwhile, the world today is just over-sexualized. Why would someone be recording their sexual acts if they are not nursing a clandestine motive or are pervs? Drama queen jam drama king. |
Na color and richness of Malta Guniness una showcase for here o. No be that of Akwa-Ibom. |

saphiere:Your dad defiled you?

If this man is found guilty as charged, he should be hanged by the scrotum and allowed to rot there.

Rose99:Thanks dear |
