As an old bloke who has to get up during the night,
often a few times, in order visit the loo, I can empathise
with you as it can be extremely disruptive to your sleep
patterns—particularity regarding your vital REM sleep
stage.

I can't offer you any specific medical advice as such, as
the forum disallows it.

Treatment for central diabetes insipidus often involves taking
a synthetic form of the hormone vasopressin to restore urine
output to normal. Desmopressin (Minirin, Octostim) or vasopressin
(Pitressin) are the medicines used here in Australia.

I have experience with urine bags. My (late) husband had to have a catheter and urine bags for several years because of Multiple Sclerosis. You can get night-bags to attach to the urine bag. Urine will flow from the day-bag to the night bag without leakage. However, you must check that the tubing from the day-bg to the night- bag is not kinked, to allow drainage. This is important. A few times when my husband was staying in a care home to give me respite, the staff couldn't be bothered to check the drainage, resulting him being in such agony with a full bladder that he pulled the catheter out. I can only imagine the pain. Then in the morning, when the day staff discovered all the blood, they phoned me to say that he had been taken to A&E by ambulance.
These night-bags are prescribed to people with catheters the same way that you have day-bags prescribed.
