What to do if there is no urine during B-ultrasound

Some people need to drink water when undergoing B-ultrasound examination, so that the examination can be well achieved. However, it is embarrassing if they do not have urine before the examination. The examination result is often not accurate enough if they do not hold urine. At this time, some methods can be used to quickly fill the bladder. Drinking boiled water is relatively slow, and drinking tea or coffee containing caffeine can promote bladder filling.

What to do if there is no urine during B-ultrasound

I want my bladder to fill up faster, but drinking plain water is too slow. If you switch to caffeinated drinks such as coffee and tea, it will be faster because they have a diuretic effect on the body, making it easier to lose water. Therefore, if you want to speed up the process of holding urine, you not only need to drink plain water, but also drink more coffee and tea.

And after the B-ultrasound examination, you should drink some water because the diuretic effect of strong tea, coffee, etc. will affect the body's water balance and cause cellular dehydration.

In addition to caffeinated beverages, you can also choose some fruit juices, which also have a certain diuretic effect, such as strawberry juice, watermelon juice, apple juice, etc. In addition, if you stand up and move around or take a walk while drinking water, it will help urine to be produced faster.

Why do you hold your urine?

The uterus and ovaries are located deep inside the pelvic cavity, and the small intestine tends to hang down into the pelvic cavity. When performing an abdominal B-ultrasound, the peristalsis of the intestines and their contents will interfere with the image of the uterus and ovaries, causing them to appear unclear.

Therefore, you need to drink plenty of water before the examination to fill your bladder and push your intestines upward. If an ultrasound examination is performed when the bladder is not full, the gas in the bladder and the gas in the uterus will overlap, causing misdiagnosis or missed diagnosis.

However, not all gynecological transabdominal B-ultrasounds require holding urine. It is not necessary in the following situations: After 8 weeks of pregnancy, the uterus grows and rises into the abdominal cavity, pushing the intestines naturally upwards. There is amniotic fluid in the uterine cavity, so there is no need to hold urine to observe the fetus. Please be sure to indicate the source and link when reprinting
