Best Answer

ACTH( Adrenocorticotropic hormone) stimulates the adrenal cortex to release corticostreriod horomes, most importantly glucocorticoids that help the body to resist stressors.

ACTH release , elictied by hypothalamic corticotropin-releasing hormones( CRH) has a daily rhythm, with levels peaking in the morning, surely before awakening. Rising levels of glucocorticoids feedback and block secretion of CRH and ACTH release.internal and external factors that alter the normal ACTH rhythm by treating CRH release include fever, hypoglycemia, and stressors of all types.
