Hi, thank you for your query.
Thirst is actually a normal condition as a sign that the body needs fluids to run the
metabolism. But excessive thirsty could be a sign of something that is not normal in the body.
If you always feel thirsty all the time, you should be worry. It could be a symptom of
diabetes. The other things to be considered are:
1. Dehydration: usually occurs after a long period of not consuming fluids, especially if the body experiences fluid loss due to certain conditions such as
diarrhea,
vomiting, or a lot of sweating.
2. Food: eating foods, especially spicy and salty foods can make your body thirsty and want to consume more fluids.
3. Pregnancy: pregnant women are generally more likely to feel thirsty and want to urinate continuously.
4. Certain medications: the consumption of certain drugs such as
lithium and diuretics can cause people to feel excessive thirst.
If you often experience symptoms of constant thirst you should see your local doctor. You are also advised to check blood sugar levels to anticipate the possibility of serious illnesses such as diabetes. In the meantime, you can limit the consumption of caffeine and salty foods.
Take care
