Q: Frequent urge to urinate
asked by: dtownsend on June 16th, 2009

I am a 35 year old female and starting aboout a week ago I have had this frequent urge to urinate(alot worse at night) but then when I get up to go it takes forever to start going and even when I do start to go it's usually just a little bit. 10 minutes later its the same thing all over again. I have no pain and no funny color urine. Does anyone know what this could be?

A frequent need to urinate and passing small amounts of urine is a sign that something irritates or presses on the bladder.
The most common cause of bladder irritation is a urinary tract infection.
Rare causes are stone or cancer inside the bladder.

I have the same problem except that I have pain, a lot of pain. The pain stops when I got home from work because I wear at home diapers and I drink a lot of liquid like 60oz of liquid, then as soon as I have the urge to urinate I stand up and urinate in the diaper. the pain desapears in about 15 minutes and I don't have more pain until the next day when I go to work and of course I can not do the same procedure. I go to the Urologist for almost a year now, I have no infections, I had have all kind of test, nothing is wrong, medications don't work. It would help if anybody share some secret cure for this problem.
