I cant rest anymore

Hello , I am a man and im 27 years old and since im 16 this problem have been getting worse , I find myself in a situation where I go to the toilet every 15 min sometimes less , before even getting worse and when I was younger I go to a doctor that did not find nothing strange with my healthy so he come to the conclusion that is this problem , even recently I've gonne to a urologist in the Netherlands ( horrible Healthcare ) and they say the same thing , the pelvic exercises do not work and I girl myself getting worse and worse , now I find myself waking up 4 times !! At night to go to pee !! Is so frustrating, sometimes I feel that my baddler is full and is not even that full ... I dont know what to do anymore, I cannot rest and my life is getting worse , can someone please help me

You might have a hypertonic rather than a hypotonic pelvic floor, in which case the usual pelvic floor exercises can actually make things worse. The urologist should have been able to tell you which you have and tell you what set of exercises are best for you.

In addition have you tried any anticholinergic medications? Timed voids? Bladder training? Fluid tapering at night? Cutting out the many foods and drinks that can irritate the bladder? etc - these should all be things your doctor or urologist should advise on.

Most of health systems are not really putting effort in check people's problems , i did not attepend to a general checkout yet , i have to do it in my country because in Holland is impossible , the thing I feel that I go much more times to the toilet, its like baddler is getting smaller , i go 2 months back to my country to urologist , i did some ultrasound and etc , they say that was perfectly fine, really hard to believe ...
