It is annoying to always urinate a lot in cold weather - especially when there are not many toilets around - but it is a natural process.

It is annoying to always urinate a lot in cold weather - especially when there are not many toilets around - but it is a natural process.

Imagine: you go out for coffee with friends or colleagues on Christmas, but don't have a toilet inside the store. So you have to interrupt the conversation to go out to find the toilet.

It's cold, we tend to urinate more.

You tried not to drink lots of water, but why do you still urinate so much?

Don't worry, there's nothing unusual about your body . There are cases that have been very worried about health, and see doctors for advice. But this is normal and happens to all of us.

And experts believe it is something called 'cold weather'.

Our bodies are very intelligent and well adapted, so when exposed to cold air, it adjusts to its own way.

In cold weather, our bodies try to maintain the temperature, whose core is vasoconstrictor .

Usually when blood passes through the vein close to the skin, the outside temperature cools that blood, then it moves through the body inside the body and reduces our body temperature.

To avoid this, the body restricts blood vessels and capillaries in our limbs such as fingers, toes, ears and nose, allowing less blood to flow through these areas.

And now there's less blood space, but there's the same amount of blood, so our blood pressure goes up.

A bladder filled with water also leads to heat loss.

It is thought that to avoid hypertension while keeping your body warm, our bodies reduce the amount of water in the blood to balance this pressure.

As blood pressure rises, anti-diuretic hormone decreases, indicating that the kidneys draw water from the blood and store it in the bladder, making us feel like urinating.

A bladder filled with water also leads to heat loss, so our body will try to eliminate this heat-absorbing agent as soon as possible.

So, if you intend to go out and drink with friends in the cold weather, try to avoid the tables sitting outdoors, go inside with warm lights, you will feel less sad urination.
