What does hypothalamus have to do with urine?
Yes, a lack of vasopressin (ADH) can cause excessive urination, a condition called diabetes insipidus. Vasopressin is released by the posterior pituitary, but is actually produced in the hypothalamus and transported to the posterior pituitary through axons. Thus, an inability of the hypothalamus to produce vasopressin would cause excessive urination.
What is the effect of stimulating the hypothalamus in certain areas?
Stimulating specific areas of the hypothalamus can have various effects on the body and behavior.

Stimulating other areas of the hypothalamus can also regulate sleep, thirst, body temperature, and hormone release.
