Adrenal Disorders

A human body is made up of two adrenal glands found at the top part of every kidney. These adrenal glands form part of the endocrine system in the body, a group of vital glands that generates hormones. 

The adrenal glands are generally small in size and are in charge of various hormone-related functions within the body. Due to this, any disorder or disease that affects the adrenal glands can negatively impact overall health. Some of these adrenal disorders can be chronic and life-threatening; hence early diagnosis and treatment are crucial.
