If you get up in the night multiple times to urinate, you may have a condition called nocturia. We do offer several products that can help:
For postmenopausal women, what are the most common causes of nocturia?
1. Nocturnal Polyuria (Most Common Overall)
This means the body simply produces too much urine at night. It can occur due to fluid redistribution from the legs when lying down. It is considered the #1 cause of nocturia in older adults.
You can find relief by doing the following:
- Taking Natural Drain: https://www.neueve.com/collections/supplements/products/natural-drain
- Timed Hydration: You need to drink most of your daily water in the morning and early afternoon. In the evening, you will need to eat mostly dry food and limit water intake.
- Yoga Poses: You can do a yoga pose for 20 minutes in the evening, about 1 - 2 hours before bedtime. The position is to lie down with legs up on a chair. See the image below. After you hold this Yoga position for 20 minutes, most of the water in your legs will drain into your bladder, and you can empty it before bedtime. This may help you sleep through the night.

Overactive bladderand ICare very common after menopause. The bladder becomes more sensitive and “overactive,” causing frequent urges day and night.
