Overactive bladder (Over Active Bladder)
Overactive bladder is a condition in which the bladder muscle contracts involuntarily, causing a strong urge to urinate even when the bladder is nearly empty. If left untreated, it can lead to urinary incontinence.

Behavioral habits
The frequent need to go to the bathroom can be caused by behavioral habits, such as excessive fluid consumption, or by foods, drinks, and diuretic medications, which increase urine production.

Spinal nerve
The frequent need to urinate could be caused by spinal nerve irritation or injury. This condition can be caused by neurological disorders and nerve injuries, such as those associated with Alzheimer, cerebral palsy, stroke, nerve disorders, diabetes, and Parkinson.

Abnormal structure
An abnormal structure in the body, such as a tumor or bladder stones, can cause a frequent need to urinate. In addition, prostate enlargement, known as benign prostatic hyperplasia (IPB), can block the flow of urine and cause the bladder to contract even with a small amount of urine.

Inflammation
Inflammation caused by urinary tract infections can increase the frequency of urination, but usually with a small amount of urine. Bacteria irritate the urinary tract wall and cause inflammation of the bladder and urethra.
