Not only women, men also sometimes face difficult problems. It’s hard to imagine a 25 year old young man, tall, handsome, very calm and manly, but still “wetting the bed”. But this is the situation British consultant Deidre Sanders has recently come to terms with. Deidre Sanders has been a “Dear Deidre” columnist on The Sun for the last 30 years.
In a letter to a consultant, the 25-year-old shared that he was dating a great girl and was really thinking about their future moving into the same house. However, he didn’t dare admit to her that he sometimes “wake up” in the middle of the night.

She said she had this problem since childhood: “I am an adult, but 2-3 times a week, I wake up and still find the sheets wet. This is really embarrassing!”
He met his current girlfriend through work and the two have been dating for a few months, the relationship is developing very well. Several times, he came to the house to play, the girl even suggested that he stay the night. “I often make excuses to go home. But now I’ve run out of ideas to make excuses I can’t spend the night there. I also don’t know how to deal with this problem”, the man sent a letter asking for help.
According to expert Deidre Sanders, in this situation, the young man should see a doctor. A urologist can help you determine the cause and suggest specific treatments.
In addition, the consultant said that he does not need to admit this problem to his girlfriend when he is not ready. If the woman is truly her “half,” she can wait and provide support if needed.
Why do adults still wet the bed?
According to doctors, bed-wetting is a condition in which urinary incontinence occurs during sleep. This phenomenon often occurs in children because the child’s body is not fully developed, the nervous system has not been able to control when the bladder is full of urine.
As children get older, bed-wetting will go away on its own. If a person reaches adulthood and still wets the bed, it’s usually a sign of illness.

Adults can wet the bed for a number of reasons, such as:
– Genetics: If both parents have this disease, the chances of their child getting this disease are quite high (with a risk of around 77%).
– Because the person has a bladder that is smaller than normal, the ability to store urine in the bladder is not good.
– Due to urinary tract infection, the patient always feels uncomfortable and wants to urinate.
– Due to hormonal disturbances: This condition is common in diabetic patients.
Bedwetting is sometimes also a symptom of nervous disorders, patients often sleep too tired to wake up, do not have time to go to the toilet when needed.
– Severe constipation causes bladder irritation, thereby causing urinary incontinence.
– Some psychological problems like anxiety, sadness, insomnia can also cause bedwetting.
– Sexual harassment…
Most cases of bedwetting are not caused by diseases that are harmful to health, but can greatly affect the quality of life, cause discomfort in daily life, make patients lose confidence, anxiety… Therefore, to find out the exact cause, then apply treatment definitive and appropriate, patients should go to the doctor when they find that they have symptoms such as urinary incontinence, bedwetting… For children over 5 years, if bed-wetting occurs occasionally (every few weeks, every few months) it is fine, but if relapses continuously (several times a week or every day) it is also necessary to see a doctor.
