Yes it is true that drinking excess alcohol can cause dehydration. Alcohol is known to be a diuretic that causes you to urinate more. Alcohol reduces the production of the ADH hormone that prevents you to dehydrate by retaining water. With a lack of this hormone your body actually allows you to urinate more than you normally would and this causes the dehydration.
