Changes in urination patterns, such as increased frequency or urgency, can be indicative of nephritis. When the kidneys are unable to filter waste products and excess fluids effectively, it can result in an increased production of urine. You may find yourself needing to urinate more frequently or waking up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom.

On the other hand, some individuals with nephritis may experience a decrease in urine output due to reduced kidney function. If you notice any changes in your urination patterns, it’s essential to consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation.

Your doctor may perform tests, including blood tests and imaging studies, to assess your kidney function and determine if nephritis is the underlying cause of your urinary changes. Early diagnosis and intervention can help prevent further kidney damage and improve your long-term prognosis. (7)
