how does alcohol dehydrate a person? Is it through the actual act of drinking or that it makes you urinate more and you don’t replenish with water?

The other comments about alcohol being an antidiuretic hormone inhibitor are correct but a study I can’t find atm found that upto 4% alcohol still hydrates you as the ~96% water you’re drinking outweighs the keeping less water. And really you’re only going to the loo more because you’re often drinking a lot of liquid when out drinking.
