A member asked:

I drink about 8+ cups of water a day, but my throat is still dry after a about half an hour of drinking. i sing so hydration is very important to me.?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Urinate frequently?: May need bloodwork to rule out diabetes which can make you thirsty and urinate frequently. Also, singing can dry out your throat as well. So. This may just be a side effect of singing.
