Adult Bedwetting: Facing A Closet Issue

Adult Bedwetting: Facing A Closet Issue

About one in every 10 five-year-olds experience bed wetting. This is why bed wetting in young children is an acknowledged and accepted condition, similar to experiencing measles. That is, children develop immunity from measles and they eventually outgrow bedwetting.

Bed wetting in older children, although less talked about, is also an accepted condition. Parents even seek out the help of health professionals to find solutions to stop or reduce the bedwetting.

This Pavlovian method entails the adult to place himself under an extremely cold shower each time he accidentally voids his urine during his sleep. The cold shower is a form of punishment. And theoretically, if a person suffers, he will no longer wet his bed. Such method is a failure simply because there is an underlying reason for adult bedwetting

Adult bed wetting is often triggered by a certain medical disorder. A doctor should conduct tests, such as urinalysis, urine culture, and neurological examination, to determine which medical problem has led to adult bedwetting. Some of the identified problems are:
