Cascade Ranger	You may be suffering from urinary Tract Infection... what you're experiencing is a common symptom of it, namey frequent urination. Diabetes, pregnancy, and prostate problems are other common causes of these symptoms. Other causes include: * Interstitial cystitis (an ongoing inflammation of the bladder that is much more common in women than men; often difficult to diagnose and treat) * Diuretics and many other medications And, less commonly: * Radiation therapy * Bladder dysfunction * Bladder cancer Common causes of nighttime urination: * Drinking too much before bedtime, especially caffeine or alcohol * Enlarged prostate Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

amnesty	It could be caused by drinking alot of caffeinated drinks like coke and coffee and tea, they are diuretics that cause you to urinate more frequently. Unless you drank alot of water recently, which would account for the frequency in the last 46 minutes, it could be an early sign of diabetes, if it continues and your vision is being a bit blurred you should contact your doctor and get a urine and blood test done.

lana k	Sometime when this happens to me I have not emptied my bladder the first time, or I have a UTI. This can be caused by many things . Medication usually antibiotics, not drinking enough water etc. I would contact my physician and have him take a urine sample. It could also be caused by deterioration of bladder function to do with aging. This can be very serious!! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

BLITZKREIG	The no. of times of urination depends on the amount of fluids you take. More fluids u take more is the no. of times u hv to urinate. Also weather & disease can affect the frequency of urination. 7 times in 46 min is highly unusual for a normal person. So drop in to ur doctor's clinic & get a complete evaluation. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

jesskell13	well, have you drank anything in the past hour? when i drink coffee or tea, i go 4-5 times in an hour sometimes. 7 times is a lil excessive, but i guess it all depends on how much and what your drinking. anything with caffeine is gonna make you go more than usual! i hope its not something worse...ive had a urinary Tract infection once that made me want to pee like 7 times in one hour, but i knew something wasnt right, it wasnt like i just started peeing more. well good luck i hope you can slow the flow....lol.....

2plus3	it could be diabetes as this is a symptom of being diabetic.
