Why does nocturnal enuresis occur, and what are the treatment options?
Asked by Male, 24 · 2 months ago
Nocturnal enuresis (bedwetting) occurs due to delayed bladder control, increased night-time urine production, reduced bladder capacity, deep sleep, or emotional stress, and it is common in children. Treatment options include bladder training exercises, limiting fluids before bedtime, using enuresis alarms, and medications, such as desmopressin or oxybutynin, under a doctor?s supervision.
