A method for manufacturing an electrolytic capacitor of the present disclosure includes first to third steps. In the first step, a capacitor element is prepared that includes an anode body on which a dielectric layer is formed. In the second step, the capacitor element is impregnated with a first treatment solution containing at least a conductive polymer and a first solvent. In the third step, the capacitor element is, after the second step, impregnated with a second treatment solution that contains a polyol compound having 3 or more hydroxyl groups per molecule.
