Question

My 15-year-old daughter is still wetting the bed recently. Are there any methods to solve this problem?

Answer

Hello, based on your description, your daughter may be experiencing issues related to sleep quality, which could lead to bedwetting at night. Firstly, we should pay attention to some of her bedtime habits, such as avoiding overly stimulating activities, diet, and the use of electronic devices. It is recommended to avoid intense mental activities like problem-solving, reading, or watching TV for at least half an hour to an hour before bedtime. Also, avoid consuming caffeine drinks such as coffee and strong tea, as well as smoking. Engaging in moderate physical activities like walking or doing exercises can help relax both the body and mind. Additionally, you can try eating some foods that are conducive to sleep, such as milk, fruits (apples, bananas, pears, etc.), porridge made with millet, or congee with jujube seeds or lotus seed powder. If the problem persists and is severe, it is advisable to take your child to a doctor and consider taking some medications such as brain-nourishing kidney pills, calming brain fluid, or Guipi pills.
