Sherry has addison's disease so her ability to produce cortisol is reduced. how does her hypothalamus respond?

1 answer:

6 0

When an individual's cortisol levels are low, such as in the case of people with Addison's disease, the hypothalamus region of the brain releases corticotrophin-releasing hormones. This causes the pituitary gland to also secrete another hormone called, adenocortocotropic hormone into the bloodstream. <span>When the adrenal glands detect these hormones, they secrete cortisol, causing blood levels of cortisol to rise.</span>
