Answer 2

If you get into the habbit of going to the toilet before your bladder is full it could lead to a condition known as "detrusor instability", this basically means unstable bladder.

this is what you might have.

Wanna know how to fix it?

Well... All you have to do is hold on, resist the urge and in time it will pass and you will no longer have the condition. This may take some time though. It is good to go when your bladder contains about 500ml, by the way.

hope that helped

Bye.

Answer 3

Do you drink a lot of water in a short period of time? that's what happens to me sometimes..

Answer 4

I also have the same problem, I also have urinary tract infection. You have to watch what you eat, you should not eat junk foods (potato chips, etc.) Also cranberry juice aids to make UTI better. So its better if you drink loads of cranberry juice and of course water, of course you would still pee a lot. IT would take time for your UTI to be gone.It is also best that when you feel the urge to pee, you should pee immediately so that your UTI would not worsen. Also, you would need to have your urinalysis taken to see how much infection you still have. And bring your urinalysis results to your doctor, and your doctor would recommend you another medicine.  

Answer 5

cranberry juice

lots of water

and with  UTI it always feels like you have to go - even if there's only a  dribble in your bladder.

are they anti biotics??  give them a few days and call the dr.  sometimes UTI need 2 rounds of anti bitoics.  BUT CALL THE DOCTOR otherwise it can travel up to your kidneys and YOU DONT WANT THAT.

Answer 6

do you suffer from anxiety?

this is a common symptom of anxiety. i know, i suffer from it and it gets worse at night

i will go to the toilet and hop into bed and just as i am getting comfy i needa pee again

quite often nothing even comes out my body just thinks i need to pee

if this is the same for you i have found that they way of testing i you actually have to go or not it pushing as is you are constipated and if you feel like you are busting, go, if not, don't

hope this helped!

Answer 7

Move into the bathroom and bring the TV.

Answer 8

If the pills are not working, go back to the doctor, or better yet get a second opinion.  You could have something more serious than an infection.  

Answer 9

This is called Urinary Incontinence

Use Adult Diapers till the problem is solved.

Call your dr back and tell him the pills are not working, you might need test run to determine the problem.
