PATHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -ADH is also called arginine vasopressin. It’s a hormone made by the hypothalamus in the brain and stored in the posterior pituitary gland. It tells your kidneys how much water to conserve. ADH constantly regulates and balances the amount of water in your blood.

Detailed explanation-2: -High levels of anti-diuretic hormone cause the kidneys to retain water in the body.

Detailed explanation-3: -The posterior lobe of the pituitary gland stores and releases (secretes) only two hormones: Antidiuretic hormone (ADH, or vasopressin): ADH helps regulate the water balance in your body by controlling the amount of water your kidneys reabsorb while they’re filtering wastes out of your blood.

Detailed explanation-4: -ADH is stored in neurons within the hypothalamus.

Detailed explanation-5: -A hormone that helps blood vessels constrict and helps the kidneys control the amount of water and salt in the body. This helps control blood pressure and the amount of urine that is made. Antidiuretic hormone is made by a part of the brain called the hypothalamus and is secreted into the blood by the pituitary gland.
