Best Answer

Addison's disease and Congenital adrenal hyperplasia are the names of disorders associated with a deficiency of aldosterone, both are rare. Aldosterone is a hormone secreted by glands that sit on top of the kidneys (adrenal glands). This hormone basically works on how our bodies hold on to the salt and water content of our blood, which affects our blood pressure. It also works to allow our bodies to release potassium.
