Diabetes insipidus (DI) is a rare condition that occurs when your kidneys are not able to conserve water. It results in extreme thirst for water and frequent urination. There are several types of DI, and they can often be successfully treated.

This condition is not related to diabetes mellitus (the disease most often referred to as simply "diabetes").
