Keep a Bladder Journal

Keep a journal of what and when you eat and drink and also when you have the urge to go to the restroom. Try to keep it up for at least a few days and you may start to see patterns between consumption and urgency. Share the journal with your doctor and together you might be able to identify some triggers of your overactive bladder and therefore take steps to avoid them.
