In 122 children (85 girls, 37 boys) with nocturnal enuresis, information on drinking and voiding patterns was elicited. Many of them (60% of the girls and 40% of the boys) had previously been continent for 1-5 years. It turned out that the children tried to suppress voiding and had the habit of drinking primarily during the second half of the day. After changing these habits, 119 children became permanently continent.
