Frequent urges to urinate can be the result of overactive bladder (OAB). This is called urinary urgency. People with OAB can also find they have more than the urge to urinate; they actually need to urinate often. This is called urinary frequency. Incontinence can also be a problem. And people with OAB can experience nocturia, which means they need to get up frequently at night, to go to the bathroom.
