Hormonal disorders: in menopause, the drop in estrogens affects the tissues of the urinary tract and increases the frequency of night urges.
And what about men?
In men, the first suspect is often benign prostatic hyperplasia, a common condition after the age of 50. An enlarged prostate can make it difficult to empty the bladder and cause frequent urination, including at night.
This condition, although mild, requires a medical evaluation to avoid future complications. There are easy therapies that can improve the quality of life without the need for surgery.
Simple actions for better sleep... Fortunately
, there are specific ways to take back control of your nights:
