Answer:
Antidiuretic hormone (ADH), also known as vasopressin, is a small peptide hormone which regulates the body's retention of water. It is one of only two hormones secreted by the posterior pituitary gland.
ADH is produced by the hypothalamus in the brain and stored in the posterior pituitary gland at the base of the brain. ADH is normally released by the pituitary in response to sensors that detect an increase in blood osmolality (number of dissolved particles in the blood) or decrease in blood volume.
