Bedwetting Issues

Bedwetting, or nocturnal enuresis, is a common issue in children, where they involuntarily urinate during sleep. It often occurs due to a combination of factors, including delayed bladder control, hormonal changes affecting urine production at night, genetic predisposition, or stress. While it can be distressing for children and parents, most children outgrow it by adolescence. Effective management may include behavioral strategies, moisture alarms, and, in some cases, medication. Understanding that bedwetting is a medical condition rather than a behavioral issue can help alleviate feelings of shame or frustration for both children and families.
