Frequent nighttime urination: What should you do when you constantly get up at night? Frequent nocturnal urination is often caused by kidney qi deficiency. In men, it is generally associated with prostate diseases. All three major prostate conditions—chronic prostatitis, benign prostatic hyperplasia (prostate enlargement), and prostate cancer—can lead to nighttime urinary frequency, with benign prostatic hyperplasia being the most common. It's essential to undergo thorough examinations to determine the exact cause before starting treatment.
