Cortisol is a hormone in the adrenal cortex that surges in response to the release of ACTH, another hormone produced by the pituitary gland. Cortisol levels are a good indicator of adrenal and pituitary function. Elevated cortisol levels can be a sign of several medical disorders.
Elevated cortisol levels can affect every physiological system in your body, including your thyroid and adrenal glands. It can make you anxious and irritable, lead to weight gain and bone loss, contribute to diabetes and heart disease risk, and deplete your energy levels. Cortisol is also known as the aging hormone. When cortisol gets too high, it puts you into a âfight or flightâ response, which stimulates your sympathetic nervous system and your adrenal glands. When this occurs, there is a decrease in your digestive secretions and an increase in blood pressure.
