Enuresis, or bedwetting, is a common developmental disorder in childhood. It typically resolves itself as the child grows and matures. In fact, around 15% of 5-year-olds experience bedwetting, but this decreases to 5% of 10-year-olds and 1% of 18-year-olds. While medication or psychotherapy may be used in some cases, the natural course of enuresis is to improve over time without intervention.
