IS BED-WETTING A PROBLEM IN YOUNG?ADULTS? About two out of every

100 young adults wet the bed at night (also called nocturnal enuresis).

It can be a problem for both young men and women, with most young adults who wet the bed having done so since they were a child. While some may have had help as a child, many young people may never have had help with this problem. They may think bed-wetting will get better with time, or that it can'

t be helped. Some young people with night-time wetting may also have day-time bladder problems, such as passing urine more often and more urgently than normal, and urine leaks as they hurry to the toilet (also called overactive bladder). Bed-wetting can make everyday life more difficult. Young adults may be embarrassed by this problem, and they may fear that people will find out. They can also have the expense and workload of extra washing. It can be tricky to stay away from home overnight or to share a bed or room with someone else. A big worry is what bed-wetting can mean for close personal relationships. IS HELP AVAILABLE FOR BED-WETTING? The good news is that you CAN get help. With careful review and treatment, bed-wetting can often?be cured, even if past treatment did not help. Even when it can'

t be cured, you can reduce symptoms and keep bedding dry. WHAT CAUSES BED-WETTING IN YOUNG ADULTS? Wetting the bed is caused by a mix of three things: ? the body making a large amount of urine through the night;

? a bladder that can only store a small amount of urine at night;

and ? not being able to fully wake up from sleep. In some young adults there is likely to also be some change in bladder function that stops normal filling and?emptying of urine through the day. 青少年尿床是否不正常? 大约每100个青少年中就有2个会在夜晚尿床(也叫 作夜间遗尿症).男女青少年都可能出现尿床问题, 大多数尿床的青少年在童年就有这个问题.有些人在 小时侯可能得到过帮助,但是很多青少年在这个问题 上可能从未得到过帮助.他们可能不是以为尿床会随 时间得到改善,就是以为尿床无法解决. 一些夜晚尿床的青少年可能白天排尿也有问题,例如,排尿比正常频繁而紧迫,并且在匆忙上厕所时漏 尿(也叫作尿急). 尿床会给日常生活增加困难.青少年可能会因为这个 问题感到尴尬,并且害怕被人发现.他们还可能需要 额外的开支和时间进行洗换.在外过夜或跟其他人同 床或同房会很麻烦.更令人担心的是尿床对亲密关系 会造成的影响. 尿床的人能获得帮助吗? 令人欣慰的是你可以获得帮助.即使过去治疗无效, 经过再次细心检查治疗,尿床常常可以治愈. 即使无法治愈,你也可以减轻症状,保持不尿湿床 单. 青少年尿床的原因是什么? 尿床是由三个因素共同导致的: ? 身体在夜间产生大量尿液;
