No, it’s actually not normal and the problem is probably due to something else than just hormonal decline. Most commonly, noctural enuresis (bedwetting) in adults is brought on by an urinary incontinence. urinary incontinence can be caused by an irritation of the urinary tract due to urinary infection, a tumor in the urinary tract or a stone that has stuck somewhere in the lower urinary tract. It could also be weakened pelvic floor muscles.
If the problem lies in the muscles, they may be solved by exercise like yoga, Pilates and others but if the exercises don’t help you may have to undergo a surgery.
If the problem lies in the urinary tract infections, irritations, tumor or a stone, then you should act quickly and see a doctor as soon as possible so that things wouldn’t get worse.
The tests you may have to undergo are genitals’ examination, neurological examinations, urinalysis, and maybe some additional imaging tests like an ultrasound, MRI, cystoscopy, etc |
