Nocturia information


Nocturia is defined by the International Continence Society (ICS) as "the complaint that the individual has to wake at night one or more times for voiding (i.e., to urinate)".[1] The term is derived from Latin nox – "night", and Greek [τα] ούρα – "urine". Causes are varied and can be difficult to discern.[2] Although not every patient needs treatment, most people seek treatment for severe nocturia, waking up to void more than 2–3 times per night.
