Causes and Treatments of Bedwetting in Adults

4. Diabetes

Diabetes is one condition that may cause adult bedwetting. People with diabetes do not metabolize glucose properly, which may cause larger amounts of urine. This increased amount of urine makes it harder for adults with diabetes to hold it at night, especially if getting out of bed in time is not always easy. For many people who are eventually diagnosed with diabetes, bedwetting is often their first indication. Seek treatment if bedwetting accompanies any other signs of diabetes such as sores that do not heal, weight loss, and fatigue.
