can anyone find anything on this that sounds not too scientific i cant find anythin decent on google
Thanks in advance
Thanks in advance
Well I know that ADH (antidiuretic hormone) or vasopressin is controling the water level in the human body.
Is it that what u are looking for or something else.
If it is the medical term u are looking for, try to search in a medical dictionary or medical sites in the i-net.

Research the role of ADH in controlling water levels
Well I learned it when I became a paramedic. I think translating it for you, will take too much time, so I try to find some links for ya.
What languages do you speak/read?
It has to do with your blood pressure, the ADH is controlling it. If it is to high u have to make a headcall, if it is too low you can't go pee.
This is it in very simple term. Like I said I'm looking it up for ya.

Right-o.
Thanks, and "Vasopressin"? is that just a more scientific term?

You also can look/search for "endocrinology" this is were the ADH belongs to.
GCSE biology comes rushing back...
Something like
Not enough water in blood > detected by hypothalamus > release ADH > less water absorbed by kidneys (or liver i forgot!) > water levels increase.
Dont quote me on that, but i think thats the generally gist of it.

Vasopressin is exactly the same as ADH just different names, vasopressin is also the drug/medicine. Does exactly the same as the ADH.
Vasopressin can be given throughout a resucitation, to get a vasoconstriction in the blood vessels in order to rise the blood pressure. It further rise the heart rate and strength and open the bronchus a little more for a better supply of oxygen.

Yep that's it basically. It's doing a little more, but that's it in simple terms.

Well, why not? Everything you wrote is fine, so why not quote?
