Depends: If this is always normal for you then it is fine.But if the frequency is changed from before, then you need evaluation. Try to limit your drinks with caffeine at evening time to help with frequency of urination at nightime.

.? Blood sugar level: At your age this could be nothing serious or something major. Nocturnal could be a result of swelling during the day which could be related to your diet (high salt) and possibly high blood pressure. There is also a worry about diabetes presenting at this age. Uti is also a concern. I would suggest you see a physician for further evaluation.
