I usually urinate frequently as well as come up with a dry mouth at night. Kindly let me know what to do

Dry mouth and frequent urination at night can signify an underlying condition, such as diabetes, hyperthyroidism, or overactive bladder. Dry mouth and urination at night can be bothersome. They may disrupt sleep or make it more difficult to fall asleep.
However, these two symptoms may be more than an inconvenience. Sometimes, they indicate an underlying health condition. Potential root causes include: overactive bladder (OAB), prostate enlargement, pregnancy, urinary tract infections (UTIs), diabetes and hyperthyroidism.
These symptoms may be related and share a common cause. However, they could also occur simultaneously for different reasons. Because some potential explanations for dry mouth and urination at night require medical treatment, a doctor needs to assess the potential causes.
