Vasopressin is a naturally occurring hormone that helps control various bodily functions.
By maintaining the appropriate volume of water in the space that surrounds cells within the body, vasopressin allows proper cellular function.
Vasopressin (also called antidiuretic hormone) plays a role in regulating the circadian rhythm — the periods of sleepiness and wakefulness in a 24-hour cycle.
Vasopressin also helps maintain the body's internal temperature, its blood volume, and the proper flow of urine from the kidneys.
Both men and women naturally produce vasopressin, yet men experience its effects more strongly because of how it interacts with the male sex hormone testosterone.
Nerve cells at the base of the brain (hypothalamus) make and transport vasopressin to the pituitary gland, which then releases the hormone into the blood stream.Pain, stress, and certain drugs — such as opiates (narcotics) — can trigger the release of vasopressin
