Addison's disease is a condition in which the adrenal glands do not produce enough hormones. Researchers are beginning to suspect that low levels of cortisol, a hormone produced by the adrenal glands, may help to cause osteoporosis.
Pheochromocytoma, Addison's disease and Cushing's syndrome are the diseases that are associated with adrenal gland.
Addison's disease is the common name for hypocortisolism, a defect in the adrenal gland in which sufficient amounts of glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids are not produced by the gland.
Adrenal glands are involved in addison's disease.

Hyperkalemia can also be caused by a disease of the adrenal gland called Addison's disease.
The disease is called as 'Addison's disease'. In developing countries, you get this disease very commonly, as a result of injudicious use of corticosteroids by quacks, leading to suppression of hypothalamo-pituitory-adrenal axis.
In this condition, people do not have the neurologic symptoms associated with ALD and AMN, but they do have problems resulting from adrenal insufficiency.
Yes. You are right. Addison's disease is caused by deficiency of the secretion of the adrenal cortex.
Addison's disease is the result of inadequate secretion of cortisol by the adrenal cortex.When your adrenal glands don't produce enough cortisol, it is called adrenal insufficiency. It can also be referred to as Addison's disease or hypocortisolism.
