What does it mean when you pee the bed in your sleep?

Bedwetting that begins suddenly or happens with other symptoms can be a sign of another medical condition, so talk with your doctor. The doctor may check for signs of a urinary tract infection (UTI), constipation, bladder problems, diabetes, or severe stress.
Does alcohol cause loss of bladder control?
Beer, wine, and other alcoholic beverages can act as a bladder stimulant and lead to incontinence. Alcohol can also work as a diuretic and result in both more urine production and the need to go more often. Drinking to the point of blackouts can cause a loss of bladder control as well.
