Question

Diabetes insipidus disease is caused due to the deficiency of hormone produced by

• A. Pituitary
• B. Adrenal
• C. Pancreas
• D. Thyroid

Answer 1

The correct option is A Pituitary

Diabetes insipidus is a pathological endocrine condition characterized by excessive thirst and excessive production of very dilute urine. The disorder is caused by a lack of antidiuretic hormone (vasopressin) or a blocking of its action. This hormone, produced by the hypothalamus, regulates the kidney's conservation of water and production of urine through its ability to stimulate reabsorption of water by the kidneys.
