Occasional nighttime urination can happen to anyone, especially after drinking a lot before bed. But if it becomes a regular pattern, especially with thirst or fatigue, it should be checked.

Waking up with a dry mouth or strong thirst may happen when the body loses extra fluid through frequent urination. Some people keep water beside the bed because they wake up thirsty again and again.
Mayo Clinic lists greater thirst and more urination as important diabetes symptoms and advises contacting a healthcare professional if possible diabetes symptoms appear.
Thirst can also come from salty food, dry air, mouth breathing, dehydration, or certain medications. The concern is when thirst is unusual, persistent, and combined with other symptoms.
