Which hormone causes too much dilute urine?
The hormone responsible for causing too much dilute urine is atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP). ANP is released by the heart in response to increased blood volume and pressure, promoting the excretion of sodium and water, leading to increased urine output. This results in diluted urine, as the body eliminates excess fluid. In conditions like diabetes insipidus, insufficient levels of antidiuretic hormone (ADH) can also lead to excessive dilute urine production.
