A member asked:
After drinking a 20 ounce cup of tea, i experienced an uncontrollable urge to urinate. i tried to hold it back, but eventually the urine leaked. is this normal or did i lose control over my bladder?

Tea & Pee: Teas and coffee contain caffeine, which is a diuretic, which speeds up urination. In addition, your bladder may have already been almost full, so adding 20 ounces of liquid may have put you over the edge.
