Excessive urination, frequency, and urgency, are descriptive symptoms of a dysfunction in our urinary habits.  

The term Excessive urination refers to urinating an abnormally large amount of urine over a given period of time.    The average amount of daily urine for an adult is 1.5 liters or just over 1 and 1/2 quarts.  Excessive urination is considered over 2.5 liters per day or just over 2 and 1/2 quarts. 

 Frequent urination  refers to how often your body requires you to empty your bladder.   On average we empty our bladders about ever 5 hours give or take an hour. 

   Urgency is when you have the overwhelming urge to urinate regardless of whether or not your bladder needs to be emptied.  It is overwhelming and often anxiety producing due to the sudden onset of the urge to urinate.

If you have any of these symptoms, there is usually an underlying cause that can be treated.  See your physician and discuss your symptoms.
