Question

Failure to release of ADH causes

• A. Diabetes insipidus
• B. Diabetes mellitus
• C. Hepatitis
• D. Coronary thrombosis

Answer 1

The correct option is A Diabetes insipidus

Diabetes insipidus is a disorder which occurs because of hyposecretion of ADH due to which there is less water reabsorption in kidneys. ADH (Anti diuretic hormone) or vasopressin is secreted from the posterior part of pituitary gland. This hormone increases reabsorption of water in kidneys and this results in decreased rate of urine production. Symptoms of diabetes insipidus include excessive urination and thirst.

So, the correct answer is 'Diabetes insipidus'.
