Get a Better Night’s Sleep With UROSPOT
If going to the bathroom is waking you up through the night, then something’s not right. If you’ve gone through menopause, waking up once a night is considered normal. If you’re going two to three times a night (or more), it’s not.
Your bladder can disrupt the restorative sleep we all so desperately need, as it plays a vital role in our physical and mental functioning. Restorative sleep can be defined as five sleep stages of uninterrupted sleep, when your brain activity during sleep helps “restore” your body and mind, essentially resetting you for another day. You’ll know if your sleep was restorative when you wake up feeling rested and refreshed.
On the other hand, disturbed sleep can be caused by the sensation of a full bladder, which causes you to get up and out of bed to use the washroom. When this occurs frequently throughout the night, it’s referred to as nocturia, and it can impact your quality of life, not to mention health and productivity. So, if you’ve been waking up at night due to the urge to urinate, nocturia may be at play. And you may be making it worse if you’re restricting fluids, thinking that the frequency and urgency may be less if you consume less liquid.
Unfortunately, this can have the opposite effect and irritate the bladder, causing more urgency and frequency (especially if you’re restricting non-caffeinated drinks).
It’s important to stay hydrated, and sipping fluids throughout the day rather than chugging large amounts of liquid at once will help with your nocturia. Decreasing or eliminating fluids two to three hours before bedtime will help, too.
UROSPOT™ offers an innovative way to restore freedom and peace of mind for people living with nocturia and is a non-invasive solution for night waking.
