Greetings,

How long the symptoms are there? Is there any other symptom? Are you overweight? Was any test done? Is there any significant past illness?

its been going on for a couple of months and i have had UTI tests Prostate tests and STD tests and i am 100 percent healthy. I have never had any surgery or any serious health problems. I am not overweight and i dont have any trouble holding my bladder during the day.

Expert:  Dr. SS replied 1 year ago.

Thank you for the input,

Many factors may be involved in bed wetting. If there is any spine / back problem there may be pressure on nerve which can cause this problem. Other causes are diabetes, urinary tract infection, stone in the urinary system, prostate problem, sleep apnea etc. You have been tested for UTI, prostate. if other issues have not been checked, then those needs to be ruled out. You can consult an urologist for evaluation.

If you have any query, please feel free to ask.
It will be my privilege to assist you.
Regards.
