Urinary system

The urinary system includes the kidneys, ureters, urinary bladder, urethra, and sex organs (such as the testicles, epididymis, and prostate gland in men and the uterus, fallopian tube, ovaries, and vagina in women). It may also sometimes be referred to as genitourinary system or the renal system. Main functions include excretion of cellular waste, regulation of blood volume, electrolyte regulation, acid-base balance regulation, arterial blood pressure regulation, erythropoietin secretion, and production of some hormones.
