I went to a urologist with a couple of issues including this and my god was he so dismissive of my issues. Seemed more interested in whatever he was reading on his computer. Shrugged it all off as "nothing I can do about it". Learned more here than the specialist I paid to see.
I waited in the office 2 hours for the urologist. Was seen for 10 minutes (actually he only looked at his computer screen, no exam). Learn more online these days. Peace.
Hi m8 I know what it's like iv struggled for yrs with over sized prostate where iv ad cameras cancer scans peeing all over the place ops on stones in bladder nothing helped cut long story short changed GPS and bin through loads of UTI'S over some yrs so I asked to him to contact the incontinence people some thing I didn't won't to do but now having bags on night and day has changed my life completely sleeping all night not having to rush to loo or even having to thrust hand down to make shaw you get there in time and I can't run any more.
Best thing iv do for me in yrs .
Try this way its not as degrading as it sounds ok you might have a few hic cups but its 100% better than being wet in public think about it.
Same !!
Leigh...Concerning your Doctor (Urologist) I would have used the Trumpism: "Your FIRED"!. Watching this channel and others provides more useful info than you get from doctor office visits. My Neurologist that I visit is OK. He worked with me and my bouts of incontinence and Overactive Bladder & BPH . I'm 71 yo, but suffer with a number of spinal issues which affects my nervous system. Agreed, that I too have learned more watching this Video than the many visits over the years & the tests endured (which are No Picnic !!), about OAB.
Same!
Yes. Dr. It's a huge problem. very embarrassing. It's effecting my life
Marygonzalez what your active bladder think I've got overactive bladder soon as I pee I feel the urge to go again straight after do you have the same problem
@@anthonymcivor7511Sounds like Bladder infection.
@@anthonymcivor7511i have same and after i pee it burnss
Here is what stopped mine completely. I went to my gynecologist doctor and was prescribed bioidentical hormones. The prescription is filled at a compounding pharmacy not a CVS or Walgreen type drug store. It contains estrogen, progesterone and a touch of testosterone. Worked like a miracle and within a month my incontinence stopped. The issue started for me when I was going into menopause. I have using the prescription cream for a good 15 years now and am incontinece free. I suggest finding a doctor that prescribes and getting on it when you start to experience those little accidents and don't put it off until your hormones are too far off.
How much does the pharm charge you?

As someone with a spinal cord injury, and who has seen countless medical professionals, this was so refreshing. Thank you for giving all of us the knowledge that most of us can’t get when we go see a doctor.

Very informative for us in a developing country esp PNG 🇵🇬 thanks Doc
Hello Doctor Rena Mallick. I can say the best videos we are getting from you. I would like to get the guide on Overactive bladder please. I am Hemant from Mauritius. Thanks.
Seeing a urologist was the biggest waste of time for me. Her big solution was to have me take switch from taking taking two Tamsulosin pills once a day to taking one in the morning and one in the evening. I soon figured out that the Tamsulosin was causing my sinuses to bleed and I kept getting sinus infections (plus the Tamsulosin was doing nothing to improve my urinary issues). After the clinic dropped my call twice, I finally talked to someone at the urologist office (not a nurse) and she said that someone would call me back about my side effects. No one ever bothered to call me back. I quit taking the Tamsulosin and my sinus bleeding stopped the next day. Sell Big Pharma no matter the side effects. That's the state of the medical profession these days. My respect for doctors is currently at an all time low.
Sounds like my experiences with a urologist that I went to....although different. Last straw....sent me a letter wanting me to come in to get my prostate checked.....I am NOT a man.
I went to urologist they didn't seem to cure a rat's ass about me they were just trying to throw me out pills and see you in 6 months will give you the same old bulshit test that does absolutely nothing and all your symptoms are there and nothing's changed
I’m the same. We have to heal ourselves with most chronic conditions. I have no faith in doctors anymore. They only know how to push pharmaceuticals.
Some doctors are just useless and don't really care about us.
Dear, thank you for the OAB Guide. ❤
Thank you for the information in your OAB E-book. After successful chemo-radiation-BCG treatment for bladder cancer I have found myself constantly trying to manage my dehydration-constipation-over active bladder which aggravates sleep issues.... It took me a while to figure out that the meds I took to get a decent night of sleep, created constipation issues, which further aggravated my OAB.....which further affected sleep........ What a syndrome to find oneself in ! At least I am cancer free.
I 'd like to recommend an herb to you which you can get as a tea but better yet in capsule form, it's Equisetum arvensae. I think in English Horsetail ? 2caps in the morning and 2 at night. That's 900mg. ,helps me greatly ,strengthens the bones and kidneys and it's worth a try for little money...... If you're in the US or near a Chinatown, you might want to consider a TCM specialist.
I want to know that what are the symptoms for overactive bladder cancer
Hey guys listen to me please. I am 37, i have this problem with OAB since i was a teenager.
Somebody recommended Vitamine B1 and Benfotiamine to be taken for at least 3 months one of each daily. I have to suggest as a crucial advice that these Vit B1 and Benfotiamine to be pure organic and vegan free with no crap added. I can tell you dear friends that my symptomes dropped down significantly and you can see a massive change after 9-10 days and after 2-3 weeks even better. Now after 4 months of full treatment my bladder feels a lot better and sometimes i do not wake up at all during the night, which happened between 3 and 4 times every single night no matter if drinking liquids or not before bed!
Please take my advice and your life will change dramaticaly.
You welcome!😊
Hi I have this problem 😢 please kindly help me 😢
What brand are you taking, si many on the market to choose from.
Yes. I have having the issues of constipation and it has stopped me from going.
Thank you Dr
Very informative
Thank you. Watching from Brisbane, Australia. QLD.

Hi Dr. Malik, what's your opinion on using a TENS unit for Tibial nerve stimulation to improve the symptoms of an overactive bladder? Thanks
yes that is so true it disturb life and also due to that desiness
Long overdue, thank you.
I was in an accident that left me incontinent. At first I was so devastating. But in time I made friends with my disability. Especially over time I found that I control my bladder instead of it controlling me. I use catheters and I can feel the urge to go but I can put it off. Not forever but I made friends with my disability.
I have this problem l need help.
Very professional OAB-E-book, thank you for yr knowledge & advice, best from Bucharest ❤🌹 - Adrian, 65 yo-

Very good example very well thats so for all the information. U never what learn next thats so much for sharing for us.
I carry my own facility in my truck for emergencies. So far so good
Nice information and I love this information for my health.
Exiting fluids after urinating, is this dangerous?
I was surprised my urinary urgency is now gone, after i tried low carb intermittent fasting.
Thank you Dr. Malik for making this the most embarrassing subject easier.
I'm 76 and I have this problem since my school days. All my body organs
are functioning properly said my doctor recently. Foolish to say but I ain't
worried anymore since I met you here about a month ago. Pretty much I do
pee every 2 hours, I eat spicy foods and also fast foods occasionally.
Thanks again. God bless you.

Hey Rena! I was wondering if you could possibly do a video on Interstitial Cystitis sometime in the future. 26 year old male here that was diagnosed with it when I was 13 (and its fairly uncommon for males yet not unheard of) Thanks for your wonderful videos.
Joel I have had several urinary tract infections peeing about 8 times an hour and mostly at night.
I found a cheap remedy that worked almost immediately one night It is Bicarbonate of Soda NOT Baking Powder One teaspoonful in water and you will notice the relief iin less than an hour. Cheap and Cheerful.
It costs about 2.50 dollars.
COME ON RENA. NEED THE INTERSTITIAL CYSTITIS FIX.
Can u plz explain what that is bcs I'm also 13 and (TMI) I keep having a weird urge to pee and it won't stop and I don't want to go to my parents for help because it's embarrassing so plz help me if u can
I take one Zyrtec at night to calm down IC. Took about 2 weeks to take affect, but really helps.
@@jasonali6441 About Interstitial Cystitis
Interstitial Cystitis (IC) is a chronic bladder condition resulting in recurring
discomfort or pain in the bladder or surrounding pelvic region. People with IC
usually have inflamed or irritated bladder walls which can cause scarring and
stiffening of the bladder.
Who is at risk for IC?
IC affects men and women of all racial and ethnic backgrounds and ages.
However, it is more common in women than men. Early prevalence research
suggested that IC ranged from 1 out of every 100,000 to 5.1 out of every 100,000
in the general population; but updated epidemiologic research conducted in 2006
suggests that up to 12% of women may have early symptoms of IC.
What causes IC?
The cause(s) of IC is currently unknown. Its diagnosis is often made only after excluding other urinary bladder causes.
I would like to learn more about depression and urinary frequency. Also, I was not able to locate the link to the other material you provide. Thank you for you help. You did good.
Going to try your advice.
I would really love it if you would explain epididymitis and chronic epididymitis, and what is it you can do about it. But other things besides medication, surgeries injections.
I lost 85 pounds and my oab and incontinence got worse. Failed all bladder medications 😮😢 i have an implanted 10:21 sacral nerve stimulator now😊 and doing a lot of reading. Female urologist knew exactly what I needed!
I had a Medtronic Interstim device implanted and it’s been life changing!
I need this😢
Thank you so much Dr❤️❤️❤️❤️🌹
I go about 12 to 15 times a day. I go about every hour or sometimes 1/2 hour. I do not get much sleep. I do drink around 90 ounces of water a day. I am slightly overweight. 5 4 and weigh 160lbs.
I'm 5'7 and 229. I'm m
Not slightly over weight. At 5'4 161 is the wight of a grown man at 5"11. It ain't slightly overweight either.
Thank you doctor for your sharing your wisdom, it seems like some doctors these days are not able/willing to explain what you so elegantly do. Thanks again!
Excellent video Sister
thanks I appreciate this
I would love to see you do any kind of women's care video with Dr. Angel Johnson. She's a urogyn at Greater Boston Urology in Dedham, MA. You seem just as knowledgable and caring as she is (she's my doctor and I completely trust her)!
I had an episode of these kind of problems in my thirties. It turned out (in the long run) a major cause was the kind of work I was doing in those days; sitting behind a desk trying to solve intricate automation problems. Which meant sitting very concentrated for hours in one and the same position, mainly sitting on my lower back (sacrum) (like you see some gamers do), in a bad posture. It's not only the pelvic floor, it's the whole posture (neck, shoulders etc)). Your whole back gets a solid shield, and I can image the nerves that regulate the bladder, that come out of the sacrum are not very happy for not getting the room they need. Medical treatment did not work, but showed no anatomical abnormalities. It took a while to get rid of these issues, but most effect seemed to come (coincidence) from acting and singing lessons (that require freedom of movement). It's seems to be a matter of overall (not local) tightness, nor necessarily by sheer psychological stress, but in this case by bad habits (posture, sitting still for hours) that inevitable will have psychological effects too.
Must be the reason I have this. I'm 18 so no way I got diabetes or anything like that. And it's not like I feel pain or anything all it is is an overactive bladder nothing else.
@@Anonymous-xp5hf Same here. As an interesting approach, as a way of looking at things like this you might want to read a book by writer Tim Parks: Teach Us to Sit Still: A Sceptic's Search for Health and Healing. Parks describes his search for relief from chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CPPS). At 18 probably not very appealing, but it offers a broader perspective. I got rid of it, but two years ago it suddenly was back after a visit to the dentist where i had to sit for one hour and a half in an uneasy chair, numbing my lower back. Which confirmed the mechanism. Good luck!
Your comment is very interesting to me as I have postural problems due to years of office work and have been doing pilates classes to ease it. As the pilates is helping my posture improve and particularly easing my lower back, it is also helping my urgent bladder. It's early days but I am hoping things continue to improve.
Great information. Thank you.
Frits van Zanten Thank you
I quit coffee & mine cleared up ! Yeah!
Wow really
I'm very happy for you!! Maybe that's why I'm having issues
If you don't mind me asking, how old are you. I'm 43. I thought it was due to my age, I even got tested for diabetes but it's not that
@@rachelleockerman2902 don't eat meat for dinner and leave about three hours to digest....this is the one thing for sure that reduces the waking up and needing to pee
Fine job
Very informative. Thank you very much.
Very informative video
My wife has had 2 botox injection series, and is scheduled for her 3rd. They are very successful and usually last about 8mos.
Hello how are you doing
Hai
This is public gratitude to saint expedite thank you for helping me in this🙏🏻always be with me like this time
Ok ❤ keep up the good work.
Thx doc. very valuable info. Do you have any clinic in Northern VA?
I did PTNS for 3 years and then had Interstim implanted, life changing! No more pads, no more frequency or urgency,
Everyone that has any of this kind of problem thar mainstream medicine can not help with. Please look into your vitamin deficiency. Magnssium, zinc, B vitamins in general are necessary for electrolytes balance and muscle/bladdrr function. In my case it helped a lot to take vitamin supplements. Hope it help others too
You are talking about me I'm having that challenge 👍🇯🇲
That's for sharing this here
I am in bad condition for the last one and a half year with frequent urination. I am diabetic too
Ladies with ovaries! If you have an overactive bladder please go to your doctor and ask for a CA125 test. I thought I had an overactive bladder and it was Stage 3 Ovarian Cancer. I only had 2 symptoms-overactive bladder and IBS. You have to be your own patient advocate!
I've been waiting 12 months for a 'urgent bladder scan. I feel desperate to pee but have no relief afterwards and have pain on left of back and front. I said to my Dr the bladder might be a symptom rather than the cause. She didn't ask where it hurt ( I was trying to tell and show her) or what the pain was like. She said let's wait for scan of bladder rather than guessing!
Hi I am having the bladder problem, together with lower right pelvic pain which radiates to my back. I also feel bloated, nauseous, eating less because feel full quickly. I have been to GP, no uti, blood test ca125 normal. Been referred for bladder and kidney scan, who knows how long i will have to wait. Twice I was woken up from my sleep in severe abdominal pain with vomitting. I know my ca125 came back normal, but i feel there is something really wrong..
@@annemarie4141get well soon. Have you seen a gynecologist?
@@bengubuyukdere4995 yes, i booked a private appt with scan. Apart from not being able to find my right ovary (was told years ago, that this ovary was twisted up and stuck againt my bowls, due to surgery years ago on a rupured ovarian cyst). So im.happy i got checked out, so not gyni related. X
Wow, I'm sorry to hear this.. was it painful? Like what were your symptoms?
I wonder does having a prolapse uterus can cause over active bladder. I know after menopause some women will have incontinence problems. I wish that doctor could discuss that issue.
You're the best.
Thank you very much Doc! Your videos are very educative.
Thank you.
Thanks doc😎👍
Thank you
You really went into detail which was amazing thanks for all these tips 😊
I go to my urologist and they can't find anything wrong with me. Always checking almost nothing now. I was told its called nervous bladder.
Cranberry helps.
Thank you for caring.
hi,my I know you condition? my mom also have this issue..the doctor dont know what the cause.
Good advice
Love your. Videos
Great Info... thanks !!
I just want to say thanks for all your advice. i am 58 and trying to learn to be an older man.

YES! Every 50 min! I set my clock to it.
Ive had this problem since 25 years of age. I haven't got a full nights rest since then.
@@aurorajones8481 Find out what the problem is and solve it,......there are plenty of options, ....some are simple (like taking a pill) ,.....why suffer.

So tired of hematura ever once in awhile.wish you were close by I'd be there.again Thankyou very much.
Thanks doctor. I have also pain on my pelvic area besides most of the symptoms you mentioned.pls advise!
Same with me. Did you find anything out?
Thsnk you
I am a male and I have most of the issues you’ve mentioned. I have to go CONSTANTLY and it affects my life. I was scared to go watch the Batman cuz of how much I was afraid I’d have to go to the restroom and miss the movie. I had a previous checkup with a doctor and they mentioned everything was fine which I find it hard to believe. They did a ultrasound to check on my kidneys. And to measure how much Urine I was releasing before and after I went.
Results came back normal and I basically paid $400 for all testing etc. and I still seem to have this issue. I felt like doctor was jus takin my money so I stopped going.
Even now for example, the other day I drank about 20oz of water. I ended up having to go restroom 6 times within first 3 hours. Almost sometimes as soon as every 15-20 minutes. So it doesn’t make sense what was my body releasing if everything is normal?
I have the urge to go as if I can’t hold it yet not much comes out sometimes either like there’s not much pressure. It’s affecting my life and I don’t know what to do.
Hello how are you doing
Try giving up bread.
@@dudleyhaines9826 Hi, sorry I was wondering what does bread have to do with frequent urination?
@@tomasgomez1906 for me, its constipation. Food collecting low in the gut can cause pressure on the bladder. If your prostate is swollen that's two things. Im okay if I dont have bread more than once a week.
@@dudleyhaines9826 hmm interesting, is there any other food that causes this?
I had recurring UTI symptoms which sent me to the off hour clinic more than once. Oddly, no bacteria was found in the culture. After watching many masterclasses online I decided to do a parasite cleanse. After 30 days on a capsule which has mimosa pudica as well as the usual antiparasitic herbs I noticed that I had urinated out some small odd curved items that looked out of place. They were big enough to see and not microscopic. That was 2 years ago and I have not had any urgency, pain, or uncontrollable releases. There are very healthy parasite cleanse protocols out there that are quite inexpensive (less than the copay for dr visit).
What was the name of the parasite pill you took? Was your frequent urination really bad before this cleanse? I’ll try anything …
Can you share the parasite cleanse? I'm suffering and all the medicines prescribed to me aren't working.
Worst times is when on a road trip with no bathroom in sight, for hours 😩
I was diagnosed OAB in my 18 years old. Too early to face this difficulty.
Dr Malik, I have been dealing with this for many years and I have had a number of procedures and test done by a urologist and I also take medicine for it and nothing has helped hardly at all, just temporarily, the botox is the only thing really that the doctor has mentioned that I have not had done yet.
