Increase. ADH is an antidiuretic hormone, so it wants to maintain water inside the body. The greater presence of ADH, the more water is reabsorbed from the urine by the kidneys, and the more water enters the blood circulation. Larger blood volume means greater blood pressure.

∙ 14y agoAntidiuretic Hormone (or ADH) is responsible for secreting (controlling) the water content to urea and salts in the urine.
Think of ADH as a "save water" signal to your kidneys. It is therefore produced in times of water shortage, but not when there is plenty of water in the blood.
So, when there is a shortage of water the pituitary gland increases the production of ADH, and when there is a large concentration of water, ADH production is lowered

∙ 13y agoADH is the antidiuretic hormone. This hormone is released when the body is dehydrated. Overall the antidiuretic hormone cause the body to keep more water and urine volume decreases. This occurs because the ADH attaches to aquaporin proteins lining the collecting duct of a nephron, which open channels for more water going through the nephrons in the kidneys to be absorbed into the body. Since the body is reabsorbing more water, it is decreasing urine volume.

∙ 10y agoThe name of the hormone is ADH or anti diuretic hormone. This hormone conserves the water from the urine. So you have concentrated urine.

If a tumor of the glucocorticoid-secreting cells of the adrenal cortex crowds out the cells that produce aldosterone what is the likely effect on urine composition and volume?
increase urine composition and increace volume
How to increase aldosterone?
Aldosterone helps to indirectly regulate blood levels. A low sodium diet is a way to increase aldosterone in the body.
What happen to urine volume if you did not add ADH to the collecting duct?
I think the urine volume will significantly increase. The less water reabsorbed, the more urine will be formed.
Which hormone limits sodium excretion in the urine to help maintain your electrolyte balances during excessive sweating?
Aldosterone is the hormone that limits sodium excretion in the urine. It is released by the adrenal glands in response to low blood pressure or low blood sodium levels. Aldosterone acts on the kidneys to increase the reabsorption of sodium and water, helping to maintain electrolyte balance during excessive sweating.
What is the hormone that decreases blood volume?

What is the role of aldosterone?
Aldosterone promotes water retention and reduces urine volume
What hormones increase blood volume and blood pressure and how?
aldosterone ADH
What hormone aldosterone or ADH has the greater effect on urine volume?
ADH decides the volume.Aldestorone involve in maintaining blood pressure.
How to increase aldosterone?
Aldosterone helps to indirectly regulate blood levels. A low sodium diet is a way to increase aldosterone in the body.
What happen to urine volume if you did not add ADH to the collecting duct?
I think the urine volume will significantly increase. The less water reabsorbed, the more urine will be formed.
What will happen to urine volume in hypertension patient taking thiazide drug?
Thiazides like hydrochlorotiazyde is a diuretic and it will increase the volume of urine.
Which hormone limits sodium excretion in the urine to help maintain your electrolyte balances during excessive sweating?
Aldosterone is the hormone that limits sodium excretion in the urine. It is released by the adrenal glands in response to low blood pressure or low blood sodium levels. Aldosterone acts on the kidneys to increase the reabsorption of sodium and water, helping to maintain electrolyte balance during excessive sweating.
The main region of aldosterone action is the?
The main region of aldosterone action is the distal convoluted tubule (DCT) and collecting duct of the kidneys. It functions to increase sodium reabsorption as well as enhance potassium excretion. The net effect of this is an increase in blood volume (via increased reabsorption of water), and thus an increase in blood pressure.
How does aldosterone modify the chemical composition of urine?
The higher the aldosterone levels, the more sodium that is reclaimed and the more potassium that is lost.
14.How does aldosterone decrease urine volume What does ANH do?
ANH opposes the action of aldosterone by inhibiting the recovery of Na+ by the DCT and collecting ducts. More Na+ is lost, and as water follows, total blood volume and pressure decline. In low-pressure states, ANH does not seem to have much effect. ADH is also called vasopressin
