For those with Urgency Incontinence

[gtripp]

Hey All,
I haven't been diagnosed as of yet with UI I am going to see my PCP and probably a Urologist after the surgery on the 21st of april So far today ive gone 14 times to the restroom to which I am keeping count every time I use the restroom. So I have a question for yall About how often per day do yall go? Thanks for your responses

More than 8 times in a day seems to be the usual standard used to define OAB and frequent urination. I have read that six times in a 24 hour period is average.

As for me, it's usually anywhere from 8 to 15 times a day.

Keep a record for a few days of how often you pee, how much, and what you eat and drink. That will help your doctors as they start trying to figure out what's going on.

My bladder voids probably 20 times a day but what your describing sounds like me 5 years ago see a Dr ASAP trust me

I typically go 18 to 22 times a day depending on how much I drink.

 

[Pino]

At the moment i am at 17,1 times in average a day, including 1,6 times at night.

I do use the APP iUFlow to keep the records, works just fine.

In average 15-20 times a day, including 3-4 times in the night (as much as I can remember in the morning)

[SparkyDog]

Life long IC here
over 8 per day on average
and couple voids during the night
I typically change after 2 wettings
I can't make it to the bathroom in time I get little to no warning. Only pee that makes it in the toilet is if I am sitting there having a BM

Myself 15-20 times a day. And agreed on the point thank heavens I have a diaper on; otherwise my coworkers would crack jokes I live part time in the bathroom.

Cheers
