Answer :

progesterone can bind to receptors to aldosterone is a primary hormone involved in tubular-regulated sodium retention by the kidney, and this greater sodium retention usually results in water retention.

Progesterone binds to the aldosterone receptor in the collecting duct of the kidney because of their structural similarities, which results in the same, albeit less potent, effect on Na+ and water retention.ANH is also secreted by cardiomyocytes in the atria in response to increased strain when blood pressure increases. By preventing the DCT and collecting ducts from recovering Na+, ANH counteracts the effects of aldosterone. Total blood volume and pressure decrease as more Na+ and water are lost. ANH does not appear to have much of an impact in low-pressure situations.
