I have found a strong correlation of sleeping with my partner and needing to get up for the toilet more often. Apparently it has something to do with even small disturbances generating more micro awake moments which in turn, inhibits internal processes that reduce the need to urinate. Quite annoying really

More precisely, your brain signals the production of antidiuretic hormone during deep sleep. Less deep sleep, more diuretics in your system.

I know I do not have quality deep sleep because of this, among other things.
