Nose Bleeds After Consuming Alcohol, Occurs Every Time, Frequent Urination. Normal Symptoms?

Is it normal for one s nose to bleed after consuming alcohol? It happens everytime. Also, I never show any signs of a hangover after consuming even more than 10 ounces of hard liquor over a period of 2 hours, but I do urinate often, so would that have something to do with my consuming alcohol and feeling drunk but it going away within a few hours?

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

Alcohol dilates blood vessels in the nose and reduces blood's ability to clot by decreasing platelet activity "thinning" the blood and increasing the chance for a nose bleed.

Frequent urination is due to the fact that during alcohol consumption you are consuming more liquid.

Bleeding nose is not considered as normal. Consult a GP and stop drinking.

Hope this answer helps. Good wishes
