Prostatitis, why nocturnal urine?

Nocturia in patients with prostatitis is caused by a combination of factors, including inflammation stimulation, increased return blood volume, and concentration.

1. Inflammation stimulates the

prostate and urethra, so prostatitis stimulates the urethral mucosa, causing frequent urination at night.

2. Increased return blood volume at

night causes a temporary increase in circulating blood volume, increasing renal blood flow. At this time, more urine is produced by the kidneys, so it will cause more nocturnal urine.

3. Concentration at night

, patients are more focused, urine will be more obvious, so they will consciously increase nocturnal urine.
