title: Loss of bladder control in hyperthyroidism.
abstract: Urinary urgency and frequency and even enuresis may be manifestations of augmented adrenergic activity in hyperthyroidism, as are sweating, tremor, and tachycardia. Because patients rarely volunteer problems with urgency, frequency, and enuresis, it is worthwhile for the physician to inquire about such symptoms in patients with moderate to severe hyperthyroidism. Symptoms generally cease after treatment of the hyperthyroidism.
