12. Frequent Urination – Could it be a Symptom of Heart Disease?
Frequent urination, especially at night, can be a symptom of heart disease. When the heart fails to pump blood efficiently, the kidneys, which are responsible for filtering waste and excess water from the blood to form urine, are also affected.
This inefficiency can lead to fluid build-up in the body, causing swelling and frequent urination. In the early stages, you may notice that you need to urinate more frequently, especially at night. This symptom is often accompanied by other symptoms such as swelling in the legs, ankles, and feet.
If you notice that you’re urinating more frequently than usual, especially if it’s disrupting your sleep at night and is accompanied by other symptoms on this list, it’s important to consult a healthcare professional. (12)
