overactive bladder
Frequent bathroom trips
Overactive bladder is a condition causing frequent, sudden urges to urinate that may be difficult to control.
It often leads to urinating many times during the day and night, and sometimes to urinary incontinence.
The condition results from involuntary bladder muscle contractions: Her overactive bladder meant she always needed to know where the bathroom was.
