If an individual suffers from frequent exposure to cold temperatures, their body might feel as if it needs to use the bathroom more often. This is not the same kind of diuresis as the other types mentioned above. This is the body’s fight or flight method to fight high blood pressure. When the body is exposed to extreme cold, blood vessels restrict. This helps keep individuals feeling warmer, but it also causes their blood pressure to rise significantly. When blood pressure rises significantly, the kidneys recognize an issue and begin to work overtime. This includes working to eliminate more fluid in the body hoping the kidneys can cause blood pressure to drop and become more regular. If this is happening, and the individual spends a lot of time in the cold, they might be using the bathroom more often.
