Addison disease is a hormonal system disease that is caused by a dysfunction of the adrenal cortex glands, and involves the lack, or low amounts of certain hormones: cortisol, androgen, and aldosterone. It is mostly due to a lack of adequate amounts of cortisol and is often associated with bronzing of the skin.

∙ 15y agoTo my knowledge and research, there is not a known cause to Addison's disease. Though you may find alternative method doctors who disagree. They will say it is caused by diet (such as an intolerance to glutton, etc.) or parasites possibly living in your body. This theory is not recognized with endocrinologists however.
