The medical name for wetting the bed is enuresis
(pronounced: en-yuh-ree-sis). Bed wetting is fairly common among ordinary,
mature and healthy teenagers with one in every 100 wetting the bed at some
stage. It can be embarrassing and difficult to talk about, even to your family
or best friends. It can make a simple camping trip or sleepover something to
worry about instead of look forward to.
Teenage bedwetting doesn't mean there is something
abnormal about the teenager.
While doctors and other health professionals are not
always sure why bedwetting occurs, certain conditions may cause the problem.
Often bedwetting has been a problem since childhood. It happens to boys more
than girls. Luckily, most outgrow the problem with time and/or treatment.
