waking up at 3 am to pee every night

[Guest guest]

Hey Group,

I wake up every night at 3 am to pee. Can anyone give me some insight on

what could be causing this? Thanks!!!

Mike,

How old are you I wake up every night about 1pm then 5 pm go pee. If I don't

drink water after 8pm I wake up dehydrated with a headache. Some nights I can't

fall back to sleep so I do this and it puts me to sleep very fast.

I have been doing this for about 25 yrs to help with my stress being a Type A.

If you do this laying down it puts you to sleep.

If you're not diabetic, then I would guess prostate enlargement or low

aldosterone, which can be a result of low thyroid. I used to get up several

times a night to drink and pee and my prostate certainly isn't enlarged. It has

gotten increasingly better as I've been able to raise my thyroid meds.

I keep two glasses of sea salted water on the nightstand and drink it when I get

parched overnight. I believe the sea salt really helps.

Heck,....if you find out let me know!

I probably pee at least 3 times a night. Not a diabetic, my prostate is fine as

well as my PSA, and supposedly I have no issue with low aldosterone.

I guess I just drink too much water before bedtime, but I am so used to it that

I feel all dried out if I skip it. My eyes even get dry feeling.

I used to have this problem until I started CPAP therapy.

Now, I just wake up - probably cortisol in my case, but before, it was

definitely a full bladder waking me.

My sleep study measured my sleep efficiency at 49% so I was really awake half

the time, therefore, my metabolism was up and I was making more urine.

Maybe you have something disrupting your sleep as I did. Could be Sleep apnea

(increases with T treatment), RLS, or some other sleep disorder.

Dave,....you may have explained what is causing mine. I do not sleep well at

all, and wake up many times during the night. Only thing is I don't snore, and

nobody has ever observed me not breathing in bed.

Something to think about for sure though.

Thats my problem and I have low aldosterone and take Florinef for this with Sea

Salt I drink filtered water and put it in a Canteen 27oz's of water to 1 tsp for

Sea Salt I dring about 3 to 4 of them a day. Don't drink water out of Plastic

bottles they leach Estradiol into the water from the Plastic. Get a stainless

steel canteen and use it.

Thanks for that link Phil,....I reuse the 16.9 oz plastic bottles, and refill

them from my reverse osmosis system.

I had no idea about the E2, and that is one of my problems if you remember.

Yes stop using Plastics for drinking water or even heating up food.

I think it is either an aldosterone problem, diabetes or it could be the

arimidex that I started taking 8 weeks ago.

You should get a commision,.....just ordered 4 of the 27oz. and 1 20oz.

insulated to carry in my truck.

I don't heat food in plastic, as I was aware of that already. Always thought it

was the heat that caused the issues with plastic, and never thought about water

bottles. Did some quick reading and it appears you are correct on that also!

If it were diabetes, you'd be thirsty and peeing all day. Aldosterone is

usually worse at night--something about being horizontal. Armidex could also

lower your estrogen, making you dump any excess water you were holding, but that

wouldn't only happen at night.

As your E2 levels come down if you were holding water from the higher levels

this can happen. I can hold an easy 5 to 8 lbs of water when I am to high.
