Aldosterone, Angiotensin, and Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) are all involved in the body's response to maintain fluid balance, especially after significant blood loss. Aldosterone promotes sodium and water reabsorption in the kidneys, increasing blood volume. Angiotensin II, part of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, also helps regulate blood pressure and fluid balance by constricting blood vessels and stimulating aldosterone release. ADH (vasopressin) promotes water reabsorption in the kidneys, reducing urine output to conserve water. Estrogen and Progesterone primarily influence reproductive functions and have less direct roles in acute fluid balance regulation.
