Everyone experiences dreams. The reasons for dreams are usually due to mental stress, daily fatigue, and poor sleep quality. Try to adjust your mood at ordinary times. Some people dream about going to the toilet, and when they wake up the next morning, they find that they have wet the bed. However, they were completely asleep and didn’t know it when they urinated. What does it mean to dream about going to the toilet and wetting the bed? Let’s take a look at it next.

1. What does it mean to dream about going to the toilet and wetting the bed?

It may be enuresis. There are two types of enuresis in adults. First, functional enuresis, also known as primary enuresis, accounts for about 80%. When children are young, some symptoms include bedwetting for more than 6 months. As children grow older, the frequency of bedwetting will gradually decrease, but they will still wet the bed in adulthood, which is a stubborn form of enuresis. It may also be caused by organic enuresis. In addition to bedwetting, there are other more obvious clinical symptoms and pathological manifestations, most of which are organic diseases, most of which are sporadic and short-lived, and these symptoms and pathological manifestations will improve with the improvement of other diseases.

2. Enuresis

Enuresis, commonly known as bed-wetting, usually refers to the involuntary urination of children while they are asleep. Generally, only 20% of children have enuresis by the age of 4, and 5% have enuresis by the age of 10. In a small number of patients, enuresis symptoms persist into adulthood. Those without obvious organic lesions of the urinary tract or nervous system are called primary enuresis, accounting for 70% to 80%. Patients with enuresis secondary to diseases such as lower urinary tract obstruction, cystitis, neurogenic bladder (urinary dysfunction caused by neuropathy) are called secondary enuresis. In addition to bed-wetting at night, children often have symptoms such as frequent urination, urgency or difficulty urinating, and a thin urine stream during the day.

3. Causes

The main causes of primary enuresis may be the following: ① Delayed development of the cerebral cortex: the spinal cord urination center cannot be inhibited, and the detrusor muscle contracts without inhibition after sleep, expelling urine;

② Sleeping too deeply: failing to wake up immediately when the bladder expands after falling asleep;

③ Psychological factors: For example, the child may feel that he or she is not loved or cared for by his or her parents, and may have a strange temper, be shy, lonely, timid, and unsociable.

④Genetic factors: The child’s parents or siblings have a higher incidence of enuresis.
