Whey Protein Problem, please help


Hi! I'm new in this forum and 1st of all, I would like to say that english isn't my first language and that I used "search option" for 1 hour before posting new topic,so: sorry for any grammar mistakes. :

Now,my problem.
I was taking Weight gainer for like 3 months and everything was great (no sideffects,my muscle grew) but after 3 months I stopped gaining weight. So, I was advised to try whey protein.
I used it for only 2-3 weeks (can't remember exactly) and they worked fine for me. I've got 2 kg in those weeks. But then I started urinating a lot, and what made me councerned is waking up in the middle of night. I've read that urinating more frequently (including those annoying "in the middle of night") aren't anything special or dangerous.
But, I stopped using whey protein for a 2 weeks now and urinating is still present.
Now I'm pissed, because I'm not taking proteins but still I urinate a lot.
I'm 80 kg, and I was taking 3 x 30g per day of whey protein. (in the morning, afternoon,after workout)
I usually workout after 20:00h.
Should I see a doctor? Drink more water?!?
Please if you had experiences like this- help me with some advice.

Welcome Fo'Shizzle. I'm not sure that the urinating at night is a problem that can be associated to the whey. How much water, juice, coffee, etc do you drink during the day? Are you urinating copious amounts at night? Or is it just a little tinkle? A large volume of urine would be related how much you drink during the say. Little amounts suggest a possible prostate difficulty. And I don't think whey is associated with causing either problem

Frequent urination is a warning sign of diabetes. I would go to the doctor to make sure.

I drink about 2.5 litres of water and I'm urinating normal amount at night. Usually, I wake up once at night.
My doctor said that some measurment about liver (I don't know how to say it) is of the scale, but that it is normal during protein taking. That's why I associated urianting with whey.

If I'm not taking any supplement, is it weird that I still urinate frequently?

All that means is there isn't any supplement that can be causing your frequent urnination. Go back and talk with over with your doctor to be safe.
