Frequent excessive thirst and/or thirst that won’t be quenched can be symptoms of serious medical conditions, such as:
•dehydration: Dehydration occurs when you lack the proper amount of fluids for your body to function properly. Severe dehydration is life threatening, especially for infants and young children. Dehydration can be caused by illness, profuse sweating, too much urine output, vomiting, or diarrhea.
•diabetes: Excessive thirst can be caused by high blood sugar (hyperglycemia), and is often one of the first noticeable symptoms of diabetes.
•diabetes insipidus: With this form of diabetes, your kidneys are unable to conserve water, leading to excessive thirst.
•dipsogenic diabetes insipidus: This condition is due to a defect in the thirst mechanism, causing excessive thirst and excessive urine output.
•heart, liver, or kidney failure
•psychogenic polydipsia: This is a psychiatric disorder that causes people to drink too much.
•sepsis: This is a dangerous illness caused by a severe reaction to bacteria or other germs.
