👉 A decrease in fluid, also known as dehydration or hypovolemia, occurs when the body loses more fluid than it takes in. This can result from various factors such as excessive sweating, inadequate water intake, diarrhea, vomiting, or certain medical conditions that increase fluid loss. As a consequence, the body's volume of blood and other bodily fluids diminishes. This reduction in fluid volume can lead to a range of symptoms, including dizziness, fatigue, dry mouth, and in severe cases, more critical issues like kidney failure or fainting. The body's ability to regulate temperature and maintain homeostasis is compromised when fluid levels drop, making it crucial to address the underlying cause and replenish lost fluids promptly.
