It’s a phenomenon that all may not experience,
but most will not want to talk about: the cold-weather-induced
need to urinate. More people than not will experience this
phenomenon throughout their lives at varying frequencies,
but many will never know why. The truth is no one knows
with 100% certainty why this happens, but scientists and
doctors have a pretty good guess -- cold diuresis.
Cold diuresis is the body’s way of preserving heat when
it feels that you may be in danger of hypothermia.
When your body begins to react to a drop in temperature,
it starts to constrict your blood vessels to reduce blood flow to
the skin and keep the warmth around your internal organs.
This causes an increase in blood pressure because there
is now the same amount of blood in your body being pumped
through a smaller amount of space. In response to this increase
in pressure, the kidneys begin to filter out excess fluid in
the blood to reduce the blood’s volume, and therefore the pressure.
All this fluid has to go somewhere, and that’s where the
increased urination begins.
