Drinking WATER is IMPORTANT to stay HYDRATED, how many times a day do you URINATE?

[AviatorTom]

It's important to stay hydrated, especially in the hot summer months, and drinking water is the best way to do that. How much you drink determines how often you urinate.

So, tell us in the poll... how many times a day, on average, do you urinate.

ZERO (0) times a day

ONE (1) time a day

TWO (2) times a day

THREE (3) times a day

FOUR (4) times a day

FIVE (5) times a day

MORE THAN FIVE (5+) times a day

For me, it's typically 4 or 5 times a day, sometimes a few more, sometimes a few less.

Way more than 5.
I take a blood pressure pill that contains a diuretic first thing in the morning.
Then I mix something called Cardio Miracle and some electrolytes into about 3/4 of a liter. of my well water and use that to wash down a bunch of vitamins and minerals.

A bit later, I make 24 oz of coffee and sip that over the course of a couple hours.

All of those things make me pee quite often.

Throughout the rest of the day, I drink at least a liter of my well water.
I rarely drink anything else, although I will occasionally drink some fruit juice if I have any pineapple or guava juice in the frig, or if I have any orange and grapefruit juice that we make from our own home-grown fruit.

I don't buy bottled products.

It depends on the environment and how active i am. I typically stay well hydrated and have done so for years. On a typical day off in the cooler months, i might urinate nine times, give or take. During the hottest months on hard working days out in the sun, i might go a couple times tops.

How could you even ask us such questions? Ladies don’t urinate. That would be most unladylike. 👩🏻👘💅🏻

But on a serious note, I go to the washroom more often than I drink a glass of water. I don't count. It depends on how many glasses of water I've had.

I drink a lot of water and have a bladder about the size of a lentil, so IP a lot.

[Orion84]

I am dehydrated AF, and havecbeen for 30 years.

I pee like twice a day, if that. I'm honestly surprised I don't have kidney failure by now.

*Continues to not drink water*

[Bricealan]

@AviatorTom I have a bladder the size of a basketball... Tom... maybe 3 times a day. I can turn wine, into water... the opposite of Jesus Christ!

[katiesmuff]

I don't know, just whenever I have the urge I go do the natural thing. Never been anything I wished to keep track of.

[OlderAndWiser]

I have BPH so I take a leak probably 10 times per day.

[matchrestore]

I'd say an average of 4 times a day, but its not super consistent.

[Simslover92]

I drink a lot of water so definitely more than 5 times a day

[purplepoppy]

I've never counted but I'm guessing at least 5 times

[Iron_Man]

i want you to drink it 10 times a day

[purplepoppy]

I'm not drinking my pee

[Iron_Man]

Of course not i want you healthy

[AngryCarl2]

@purplepoppy According to UPMC Health Beat: "Urine is mostly water, but it also contains urea and other waste products, salts, ammonia, and more. Because urine contains waste products, drinking it can force your kidneys to work even harder or expose you to unnecessary toxins. This could cause illness, electrolyte disturbances, or kidney damage."

It's not clear if it's worse than drinking alcohol.

[MicroJ]

Depends on how much water I drink. Typically up to 5 times a day, so I chose 5x

[Lynx122]

I drink a lot. I honestly don't count how many times I pee but I'd say 5 and sometimes more. It also varies I don't drink the same amount every day.

[Xawyx-2]

More than five? It's more like more than ten.

[Alex-Snow]

I have never counted but I try to stay hydrated

[jahaims]

Once an hour ish. I easily drink 2 gallons of fluid a day.

[NathanDavis]

a whole lot more during the summer... drink much more as well

[Gideonery]

Not a lot if we mean daily.

Sometimes i can go 8 some times 2 maximum

[AngryCarl2]

I'm old, so I have to pee at least every 3 hours, including during the night.

[Iron_Man]

I drink now almost a gallon of Zyperhills Spring water

[alice55]

Too much to count,

[exitseven]

5 or more. Usually twice at night.

[Anonymous]

Kinda strange question to ask people 🤣 no offense

[beefcakebradybatson]

Rather frequently since my stroke.

[Flower7]

I’ve never counted…

[Dongie]

More than 5.

[Kingofkings1992]
