Antidiuretic hormone (ADH): A relatively small (peptide) molecule that is released by the pituitary gland at the base of the brain after being made nearby (in the hypothalamus). ADH has an antidiuretic action that prevents the production of dilute urine (and so is antidiuretic). ADH is also known as vasopressin.
As with most processes in the body, it works in what is called a negative feedback situation.
This feedback system reduces the output of a system. (In physiology) a decrease in function in response to a stimulus. For example, the secretion of follicle-stimulating hormone decreases as the amount of circulating estrogen increases.

Polyuria could be caused by a deficiency of what hypothalamic hormone?
Polyuria is caused by a deficiency of the hormone known as ADH or "Antidiuretic Hormone".
How does antidiuretic hormone regulate fluid intake?
It regulates the water balance in the body.
What hormone would increase in the blood during dehydration?
Antidiuretic Hormone (ADH). • ADH helps to avoid dehydration or water overload - prevents urine formation

What are Factors that increase the secretion of antidiuretic hormone?
Water conservation and thirst center
Hormones stimulating water conservation in the kidneys?
Antidiuretic hormone i think.. - depending on how much is released controls how much water is excreeted(:
Which hormone keeps both the fluid level of the body and blood pressure form decreasing?
Antidiuretic hormone.
Which hormone is secreted by the pituitary glands and increase the permeability of the collecting tube to water?
AntiDiuretic Hormone (ADH) released from the posterior part of the pituitary
What is an antidiuretic hormone test?
Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) test, also called the Vasopressin test, is a test for the antidiuretic hormone, which is released from the pituitary gland and acts on the kidneys to increase their reabsorption of water into the blood.
What is a condition caused by insufficient production of the antidiuretic hormone or by the inability of the kidneys to respond to the antidiuretic hormone?
Diabetes insipidus.
What part of the brain is involved in control of antidiuretic hormone?
The Posterior Pituitary secretes oxytocin and vasopressin, which is antidiuretic hormone.
What hormones is also called the antidiuretic hormone?
It stimulates water reabsorption by the kidneys
