Voiding 5 times in 6.5 hours is borderline, not frequent enough to define frequent urination which is usually defined as voiding voiding every 30-60 minutes. In your case, high intake of caffeine during that time period does contribute to the relatively high frequency because caffeine has diuretic effect. Take care.

Yes it is - and as a result of your intake alone
