Many people think that bedwetting in children is normal. However, when adults continue to wet the bed and do not stop the habit, they may wonder why. There are many reasons why adults wet the bed. Adult bedwetting can be an indication of a serious illness, since it is not something that adults do on a regular basis.
In fact, adult bedwetting is a symptom which can raise alarms and lead people to seek medical attention. Although it may be irritating, bedwetting can actually be useful. This article will examine some of the common causes to help you identify the problem and find a solution.
1. Genetics
Bedwetting is a common problem in families. Check your family tree to see if you have a history of bedwetting. Some scientists believe that bedwetting genes may be removed in the future by CRISPR. However, until that time you will have to accept it as a part your family history.
It’s not necessary to trace your lineage back to distant relatives. Talking to your parents or grandparents can give you a lot of information about your family history.
