Bed Wetting

It can be a frustrating journey for parents seeking a handling for bed wetting in children. There are quite a few different methods out there for treating bed wetting, and being well informed before committing a lot of time or expense to a particular treatment will serve you well.
One of the more heavily advertised treatments is a moisture alarm. This could come in the form of special pants or a pad for the mattress. The sensor on the moisture alarm will send a wireless signal to a receiver usually kept by the parents who will quickly wake up the child when moisture is detected. This method has some workability, however it does have a high relapse rate and therefore the treatment needs to be repeated as many times as necessary.

Another treatment for bed wetting in children would be in the form of synthetic hormones that are designed to mimic the hormones that regulate bladder control at night. This method has had some proven success, however it needs to be administered and monitored by a doctor, and many parents may be wary of giving hormones to their children. Similarly, antidepressants are sometimes prescribed for bed wetting in children. These drugs are risky in that they have known side effects.
