Adrenal Fatigue (HPA Axis Dysfunction) Treatment with Functional Medicine
What is adrenal fatigue? What is commonly known as “adrenal fatigue” is the inability of the brain to regulate the activities of the adrenal glands. Strictly speaking, the adrenal glands themselves do not get tired. Rather, the hypothalamic pituitary adrenal axis (HPA axis) has difficulty downregulating the production of cortisol, leading to chronic health conditions.
