It is not a good idea to take hot showers, baths or sit in saunas or hot tubs throughout pregnancy. In the first trimester, the rise in body temperature can contribute to the formation of neural tube defects (such as spina bifida) and later in pregnancy, the heat can lead to dehydration. It is best to just avoid them!

Is a hot shower bad fora drunk person?

A hot shower is not necessarily, nor directly bad but accidents like slips and falls are increased which may have extremely bad outcomes. There is also no real reason to take a shower because it will not sober you up. Best advise is not to take a shower to avoid these risks.
