The function of the urinary system, also known as the renal system, is to eliminate waste from the body, regulate blood volume and blood pressure, control levels of electrolytes and metabolites, and regulate blood pH.

The organs of the urinary system include the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and the urethra.

The kidneys are bean-shaped organs on either side of your spine, below your ribs and behind your belly. Each kidney is about 4 or 5 inches long, (12 centimetres) and all of the blood in your body passes through them about 40 times a day.
