What does it mean if a person has to pee about every half-hour or hour?

I actually haven’t been drinking a lot at all… I barely even drink one bottle of water a day. It doesn’t burn while I’m peeing, but my stomach is very uncomfortable if I don’t go right away.

It could still be a blader infection that my has not yet travelled down your uretha. If this is a new occurance for you, you should visit your doctor. Best of luck. Woodshill

Well it can be a number of reasons…

1. You say you havent been drinking a lot but yet you still have the urge to run…is it cold where you are at? I find that when it is too cold I have frequent urges of bladder control. If it’s not due to the weather outside it can be the A/C as well!
2. If you have been sexually active, it can be somewhat related! I would get that checked out! (little tip, always stack up on cranberry juice when having issues with your bladder just in case.)
3. As long as there is no burning sensation then it doesnt sound like a UTI (meaning a urinary tract infection) I would still get a urine test just to make sure all is ok since you are having frequent urges!
4. Another can be a kidney stone passing through.

In any case I would suggest making an appointment with your physician asap before it gets any worse! Good Luck & hope you feel better.

You might ask a doctor to have a colonoscopy

At your age the most likely explanation is the beginnings of a urinary tract infection. Sometimes frequent urination is the first sign. It could also be that something you took, ate, or drank is acting like a diuretic. If it doesn’t pass soon make an appointment to see your doctor who will probably order urinalysis.

Don’t forget sometimes when ur gettin ready to start ur period u cud pee a lot more to :-)

Just for some advice here, when I had my bladder infections it prevented me from peeing it didn’t make me go at all, I eneded up in the hospital, when I had my bladder infection it made me feel like I had to REALLY go then nothing

I’d say going and getting checked out might be a good idea :) UTI’s can cause frequent urination.

wow really? I thought it was bcz I was so cold, loosing so much blood…I get urges especially when pmsing!
Thanks for the reminder girl! ♥

The way it was explained to me was is when we are gettin ready to start our period our uturis swells and puts pressure on our bladder makein us pee more :-) and ur very welcome sweetie anytime :-)

so sorry to hear that :( When i had a uti, I thought i was gnna go nutz!(literally d!e) OMG as soon as i started taking anti b’s…wow…what a relief! I wouldnt wish that on anyone, ok maybe my ex’s h0 :P I know I am mean but hey I am an aries…so w00tever! :P

Yeah I know wat u mean, and I wud my ex to lol, same wave length fellow Aries :-)

always have to consider diabetes. but if you drink a lot of fluids that could be it.

among everything else mentioned frequent urination is one of the 3 ‘p’s of UNCONTROLLED diabetes. Polyuria- frequent urination, Polydipsia- frequent drinking of liquid to satisfy a continuous thirst (secondary to the loss of so much water from the body). and Polyphagia- excessive eating as a result of cellular hunger ; seen only occasionally. so i would definitely see your doctor about your symptoms.

me me me, thats mee haha but its because i think bout like 6-8 L water each day, i get super tristy everywhere i go, anywhere you see got a water bottle in my hand or purse :P

you know it girl! :P

You might have a bladder infection. That is really common for us ladies and there are a number of causes. A simple remedy is to drink cranberry juice for a few days. I’ve kicked a few bladder infections by drinking one whole bottle of cranberry juice over a weekend. It is an astringent.

If cranberry juice does not solve it, you should see a doctor. I had a condition once that was easily solved with medication.

urinary infection maybe?

I want to thank everyone for their advice, it has helped!

Well it could e that your bod has taken in alot of fluid, and its trying to realese itself. But idk if it would cause u to pee every half hour :// It could be a bladder infection? :/

you might also have a yeast infection or a U.T.I .thats exactly how i was when we found out i had a U.T.I
