Causes of enuresis

No one wants to suffer from enuresis, as you can't control yourself and wet your pants. We generally think that only children suffer from enuresis, but if it happens to adults, it would be very embarrassing. Therefore, we should take precautions before it happens. If we discover the problem of enuresis early, we can solve the problem early. However, there are many reasons for enuresis. Some people have physical defects, while others are caused by acquired fright.

Therefore, the causes of enuresis can also be classified into different categories. However, many people find that they have bedwetting problems when they are young. Some parents may think it is normal, but some parents are more concerned about this and take their children to the hospital for treatment. Now let us introduce in detail the causes of enuresis.

1. Genetic factors: Enuresis has a clear genetic tendency, and the genetic gene is located on chromosome 22q11. Statistics show that the incidence of enuresis in offspring of parents with enuresis, unilateral enuresis, and no enuresis are 77%, 44%, and 15%, respectively.

2. Developmental delay If the development of the brain's arousal center is delayed, the urination pattern completed by low-level central reflexes in infancy will be maintained. Such children often have other developmental delays. Children's thalamus and pituitary glands are underdeveloped, and the secretion of antidiuretic hormone decreases at night, resulting in increased urine volume at night. This mismatch between the reduced functional bladder capacity and the urine volume at night is an important cause of enuresis.

3. Urodynamic factors Urodynamic examinations during sleep found that 1/3 to 1/2 of the children had extremely active bladders, with frequent and large-amplitude spontaneous contractions. This unstable bladder can further reduce the functional bladder capacity of the children.

4. Secondary to urinary tract infection or obstruction such as posterior urethral valve disease and annular stenosis.

5. Abnormal neurological function.

6. Psychological factors.

The above are the reasons for enuresis provided for everyone. I hope you can understand it after reading it. If you find that you or your child has enuresis, don't be too embarrassed to speak up and not go to the hospital for relevant examinations and treatment. Long-term delay will definitely lead to more serious consequences. So if you find this situation, don't let it develop.
