Can be checked and how, the anti diuretic hormon level on children? Thank you Reka

Not every child who wets the bed does so because of low levels of the hormone ADH. Given the potential complexity of the causes it would be certainly worthwhile having your child assessed by a medical practitioner. Typically the assessment will involve gathering information on nighttime and daytime forms of incontinence, history and type of toilet training, any previous attempts at intervention, frequency of the urination (day and night), the longest dry period, whether you child is suffering from constipation and any emotional, physical or psychological concerns.Kind Regards,
