Bladder Diary Guide

What is a Bladder Diary?

A bladder diary(voiding diary) is a simple chart where you track your fluid intake, urination, urgency and any accidental urine leakage throughout the day and night. This diary helps healthcare professionals understand your bladder habits, diagnose urinary problems, and monitor treatment progress.

​

  • Record the times you urinate during the day and the times you wake up at night to urinate

  • Record the times, amounts, and types of fluids you drink over 24 hours

  • Record your urine volume (amount of urine passed) each time you urinate and whether you experienced leaks

  • Add comments you think are important​

Starting with Your Morning Wake-Up​

  • Use the diary for the duration your doctor recommends and bring it to your next appointment.

  • For accuracy, record each urination and fluid intake as it happens.

  • Start each 24-hour cycle with your morning wake-up and first urination.​

​For example, if you get up at 7 a.m. the first day, fill out your diary until 7 a.m. the next day.​

Tip for Measuring Urine Volume!

Use a graduated cup or container to measure your urine output.

You can also use the capacity of a disposable coffee cup as a reference.

​

  • Starbucks : Short 8oz, Tall 12oz, Grande 16oz

  • Philz Coffee : Short 12oz, Medium 16oz, Large 20oz

3. URINATION

When you urinate, use a measuring jug to record the amount (in oz or mL).

Also, note the time and mark your urgency level using this scale:

 

  • 0 : No urgency  

  • 1 : Felt urgency but could tolerate it  

  • 3 : Urgent need to reach the toilet, interrupting your activity

4. LEAKAGE

If you leaked urine before reaching the toilet, mark the level in the column.

 

  • Small – A few drops of urine

  • Medium – Wet underwear

  • Large – Wet outerwear or leakage onto the floor

*Note any activity that caused leakage, like coughing, sneezing, hearing running water. 

  Also, record any special issues, medication changes, or general notes about your day.
