Why does coffee make me pee constantly?

| I am in a bind. I get woeful headaches without a lot of caffeine. But it also makes me run to the bathroom constantly. Any good options for high caffeine, low-pee drinks? |

| Don’t have this specific issue but I’m guessing the peeing is because of the volume of your coffee drinks. Maybe try a double shot of espresso, which should be quite strong but small in volume. |

| Caffeine is a diuretic. It literally makes you pee more. |

This! Any drink with caffeine will make you pee. The higher the caffeine volume the more you pee. |

| Caffeine is a diuretic, so it’s going to make you pee. I have a pre-workout powder that I mix with water that I prefer over coffee because it’s gentler on my stomach. I like Alani Nu but there are others. If you don’t care about an intense taste and you aren’t specifically trying to hydrate, you can use less water when mixing it. |

Caffeine wakes up your bladder as much as it wakes up your brain. No, I'm not saying caffeine is for d**kheads, but caffeine can't distinguish. |
