🚽 Pelvic Health Hack 1: Don’t empty your bladder ‘just in case’
It’s a habit many of us pick up- going “just in case” before leaving the house or a meeting.
But doing this too often can train your bladder to feel full before it really is, leading to urgency or frequency over time.
💧 How often you go depends on how much you drink.
If you’re drinking 1.5–2 litres a day, most people will need to wee about 5–7 times in 24 hours.
🫗 An average bladder comfortably holds around 300–500ml before it’s time to go.
If you’re going much more often , or only passing small amounts, it might be worth looking at your fluid habits or speaking with a pelvic health physio.
✅ Go when you need to, not “just in case.”
✅ Space your drinks throughout the day.
✅ Listen to your body.
Your bladder is trainable. Let’s help it work with you, not against you.
