abstract: In a questionnaire study concerning voiding habits among seven year-old children starting school the prevalence of enuresis nocturna was 13.4% among girls and 22.2% among boys. For 5.4% of girls and 8.2% of boys the symptom occurred at least once a week. Half of the children had secondary enuresis.
