Dehydration (de-hi-DRA-shun) is the most common cause of orthostatic hypotension. Dehydration occurs if the body loses more water than it takes in. You may become dehydrated if you don't drink enough fluids or if you sweat a lot during physical activity. Fever, vomiting, and severe diarrhea also can cause dehydration. Orthostatic hypotension also may occur during pregnancy, but it usually goes away after birth. Because an older body doesn't manage changes in blood pressure as well as a younger body, getting older also can lead to this type of hypotension.
10 Dehydration Symptoms. Dehydration (hypohydration) is a condition, wherein the loss of fluids (water) exceeds fluid intake. Even a minor change in the fluid concentrations can result in dehydration. It is, therefore, important to top-up on H2O as you lose it, else you will become chronically dehydrated (which can cause death). Some of the common causes of dehydration are fever and immense sweating; intense workout, primarily in summers; and diarrhea.
