What is the cause for diabetes insipidus.
Answers
Answer:
Diabetes insipidus is a condition when excess urine causes water loss from body resulting to frequent thirst and kidney problems. There are two causes behind this disease.
One is the improper or lack of secretion of Vasopressin an Antidiuretic hormone.
Second is improper functioning of kidney. Kidney filters out toxins like urea from blood, but the dysfunctioning might lead to Diabetes insipidus.
Answer:
Less secretion of ADH
Explanation:
Diabetes insipidus is caused when hypothalamus is damaged or is not releasing adequate amount of anti diuretic hormone. This hormone is used to help the kidneys to maintain the required amount of water in the body. When a patient is suffering from diabetes insipidus, too much water is pulled by the kidneys from the blood stream. Body creates a watery urine and this leads to thirst.
