Why the Test is Performed. ADH is a hormone that is produced in a part of the brain called the hypothalamus. It is then stored and released from the pituitary gland, a small gland at the base of the brain. ADH acts on the kidneys to control the amount of water excreted in the urine.
Thyroid- stimulating hormone (TSH) stimulates the thyroid gland to produce hormones. Adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH) stimulates production of hormones in the adrenal glands. the posterior or rear lobe of the pituitary gland secretes antidiuretic hormone (ADH), which regulates the balance of the water in the body.
