Urinary Frequency
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
Many people come in for a consultation when they feel the need to urinate many times a day, even though each time they pass only a small amount: this is called urinary frequency. It is a symptom, not a disease in itself.
Brief definition: it consists of an increase in urinary frequency without necessarily a greater total volume of urine.
Common causes: urinary tract infections, bladder irritation, high intake of fluids or caffeine, hormonal changes, and, in some cases, kidney or metabolic disorders.
Which specialist assesses it? The urologist and the nephrologist study the origin of the problem; in women the gynecologist can also provide guidance and, in children, the pediatric nephrologist. If the symptom persists, or comes with burning, pain, or blood in the urine, it is best for a professional to review your case and guide the next steps.
