headaches after sauna

why is it that after every sauna that I get out from (I last from 10-12 min) I get a headache?? its a light headache..I also tend to feel lightheaded or drained, like no energy..

why is that?

Answer #1

drink enough water before going in sauna.

Answer #2

Because your body is heavily dehydrated from the sweating, there is literally not enough moisture around your brain, which is made up of 90% water. The only way to fix this is to drink lots of water until you can’t possibly drink anymore, then drink some more!
