Irritable bladder

I have recently seen ads and articles referring to a condition that supposedly affects many women called irritable bladder. What is irritable bladder? Does it cause any problems other than frequent trips to the bathroom?

One article defined irritable bladder as needing to urinate more than 8 times in 24 hours. Is urinating 8 times a day really excessive? It doesn't sound like that much if one drinks 8 glasses of water a day plus coffee or soda!

Excessive or frequent urination is sometimes listed as a symtom of different problems. How is "excessive or frequent" defined? At what point is it a problem worth mentioning to your doctor?

Thanks, Andrea
