About 18 months ago I was drinking alot of green tea, at least 2 cups a day at work. Then I stopped. I started again about 3 weeks ago and I have to go to pee so often! And soooo much! I have no pain and its not a few drops at a time, so can't be an infection.
During the night I can easily get up 10 times. Its driving me mental.
About 3 years ago I remember going to acupuncture because I was peeing alot in the night (I did this for a very long period, possibly longer then a year and was normal to me, but she said it wasn't) and she said something was out of balance (or such like) in my system, that same night I stopped getting up to pee. Was amazing. So I'm thinking of going back. But if its the green tea doing it?
Rest of the day I drink about 2L water and 2 cups normal tea, one cup coffee.
Thanks.

    I drink a lot of green tea (up to 4 cups a day) and my 2lt of water. I also have a coffee every morning. I don't urinate more than normal, I guess. It might take a while for your body to regulate itself again.....?
