Which hormone is responsible for regulating the osmotic pressure and body fluid volume? Correct Answer Aldosterone

The adrenal cortex mainly secretes hormones commonly known as corticoids. Aldosterone is the main mineralocorticoid in the body responsible for regulating osmotic pressure and body fluid levels.
