Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -Antidiuretic hormone (ADH), also known as vasopressin, is a small peptide hormone which regulates the body’s retention of water. It is one of only two hormones secreted by the posterior pituitary gland.

Detailed explanation-3: -Neurosecretory cells in the hypothalamus release oxytocin (OT) or ADH into the posterior lobe of the pituitary gland. These hormones are stored or released into the blood via the capillary plexus.

Detailed explanation-4: -Antidiuretic hormone is made by a part of the brain called the hypothalamus and is secreted into the blood by the pituitary gland.
