Weight loss causing bedwetting?

This is going to sound odd but aside from a possible prolapse and a few other things your doctor can check you for - food allergies will cause this. Dairy is considered a biggie for bladder incontinence and gluten is considered the second most common cause. While you're waiting to get into the doctor you might try pulling dairy 100% out for about 2 weeks and see if it improves. By that point your doctor's appt will likely have arrived and you will have some data to have him look at. If it is a food allergy causing it you have to cut it out 100%. It takes 1-2 weeks for it to clear the body and wetting to stop.

Depression can cause you to not wake while wetting your bed, often people themselves don't realize they are depressed.

You also consume more water if you increased your fruit and vegetable intake. However, not getting up in order to pee is unusual. You won't be screwed by the time college starts as there is special underwear you can wear at night - I know, you don't want to hear that, but trust me, a lot of people with health issues that have to adjust to get by daily. I hope you can get in to see a doctor soon!

Do you sleep more deeply than before you lost weight?

My experience with my kids is the deep sleepers wet the bed, they just dont wake to the sense of needing to go. The light sleeper wakes to go. My daughter who has had medication to help expand her bladder (by relaxing it so the urge to go wasnt there all the time) and is pretty much dry now but if she's overtired she'll sometimes wet the bed.

I'd still see a dr. We delayed medication as we werent comfortable with the first option presented to us but when we saw a specialist they had an alternative medication which we were happier with (and worked well).

I agree about talking to your doctor.

I wonder if body temperature could be a factor? Maybe you're colder and its affecting you?

Or maybe you've lost some muscle during weight loss is an unfortunate area.

Could be a sleeping issue too. Maybe you're going too deep into sleep somehow.

Just throwing ideas out there. Definitely best to ask a doctor.

You seriously need to see a doctor.

Don't "try", go do it. This unlikely to be nothing.

Worse, it could also be something serious.

Doctor's appointment, stat!

Good to hear! I hope you get an answer soon!

Made one today. Hopefully ill find some answers

Please let us know how it goes.

Great work making a doctors appt! We are all just guessing, but one thought: have you been doing cross fit or any other heavy lifting exercises? If so could be exacerbating an underlying pelvic floor dysfunction. Anyway, it's irrelevant as I'm sure your doctor will get to the bottom of it (and if they don't, get a second opinion!). Good luck!

Don't let people on here freak you out and diagnose your condition. I'm sure you are fine, just go to your doctor.. i'm sure they can assist. I had a girlfriend who went through this problem for a while. She had real troubles having to go all the time. She never disclosed all the details, but I bet she had troubles at night as well. However, it was enough for her to go to the doctor and they worked it out. She's been married now for years and has three children.

No one here has done that at all. Suggestions have been offered in the way of getting seen by a doctor. The dominant sentiment here is that no one here can possibly tell her what is wrong and that a doctors diagnosis is what she needs.
