Could be lots of reasons.  Are you doing more physical activity?  Eating foods high in salt?  Don't panic but you may want to look up symptoms of diabetes (excessive thirst being one) and just see if anything else fits you right now.  And of course, you may want to make a doctor's appointment and ask a professional what may be going on.
