Treat Overactive Bladder with These Lifestyle Changes

What steps have you taken to promote better bladder health in your daily life?

Tips for Managing Bladder Symptoms:

Limit Bladder Irritants:

• Reduce intake of caffeine, alcohol, soda, citrus fruits, chocolate, spicy foods, and tomato-based foods.
• Identify and eliminate specific trigger foods that exacerbate symptoms.

Track Bathroom Habits:

• Monitor bathroom habits for a few days to identify potential triggers for symptoms.
• Recognize patterns related to certain foods or dehydration.

Double Voiding:

• Helpful for those who struggle to fully empty their bladder.
• Empty the bladder twice by waiting briefly after the initial bathroom visit and then trying again.

Delayed Voiding Technique:

• Wait before going to the bathroom, even when feeling the urge.
• Gradually increase the wait time, aiming for two to three hours.

Timed Urination:

• Follow a scheduled bathroom routine to prevent urgency and regain control.
• Collaborate with a healthcare provider to create a personalized schedule, involving regular bathroom visits every two to four hours, independent of the urge to go.
