Because water is pulled from all available cells in order to flush away excess glucose, the kidneys get overwhelmed trying to filter and reabsorb it. That means you’ll be running to the toilet way more than usual to eliminate the build-up. All that peeing can leave the body very dehydrated, not to mention exhausted, because this is a 24/7 problem that will affect your ability to sleep through the night.

Other Causes of Frequent Urination:

  • Anterior prolapse (cystocele)
  • Anxiety disorders.
  • Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)
  • Bladder stones.
  • Change in kidney function.
  • Diabetes insipidus.
  • Diuretics (water retention relievers)
  • Excess consumption of total fluids, alcohol or caffeine.
