Renal calculi

Dehydration may contribute to UTIs, calculi formation, and kidney failure. Large intake of particular foods, such as dairy products or foods high in proteins, also may lead to calculi formation. Because the patient is athletic, muscle strain is probably not the primary cause of his symptoms. Caffeine, alcohol, carbonated beverages, some artificial sweeteners, or spicy foods often aggravate urinary inflammatory diseases. The patient avoids sodas, so this would not be as great a concern. Up to one episode of nocturia is considered normal in younger adults, and up to two episodes are acceptable among adults ages 65 years or older.

Women receiving hormone replacement therapy post-menopause have a higher incidence of urinary incontinence than those not receiving therapy. As estrogen levels decrease with age, the female urethra, bladder, vagina, and pelvic floor tissues become less elastic, thin, and less vascular leading to urinary incontinence. Urinary incontinence is not a symptom of acute renal failure. Urinary incontinence is not primarily due to urinary tract infections causing irritability of pelvic floor tissues. Women with a history of multiple sclerosis may experience urinary incontinence as a result of changes in nerve pathway functioning.
