Gabriel's Approach to Adrenal Insufficiency

Gabriel distinguishes TRUE adrenal insufficiency (life-threatening, needs hormone replacement) from HPA axis dysfunction ("adrenal fatigue"—cortisol dysregulation, recoverable). TRUE insufficiency: primary (Addison's—autoimmune) or secondary/tertiary (pituitary/hypothalamus) or iatrogenic (steroid-i...

Key Supplements

TRUE Insufficiency requires hydrocortisone 15-25mg/day divided doses (typically morning, midday, afternoon—mimics natural cortisol rhythm) OR prednisone 5-7mg/day, Fludrocortisone 0.05-0.2mg/day (if primary—mineralocorticoid replacement for aldosterone), Salt tablets or increased dietary salt (sodium replacement), DHEA 25-50mg (adrenals produce DHEA—replacement improves quality of life in women especially), Supportive (don't replace medical treatment): Vitamin C 1-2g/day (adrenal glands concentrate vitamin C), Vitamin B5 (Pantothenic acid) 500-1000mg (adrenal function), Magnesium 400mg, Vitamin D3 5000 IU (many autoimmune Addison's have other autoimmune conditions), Licorice Root (if NOT on fludrocortisone—raises cortisol, but can raise BP, use cautiously), Adaptogenic herbs CAUTIOUSLY (Ashwagandha, Rhodiola—may help but don't replace steroids), Electrolyte replacement

Key Lab Markers

Morning cortisol (LOW in insufficiency—<3 μg/dL diagnostic, 3-10 suspicious), ACTH stimulation test (GOLD STANDARD—cosyntropin injection, measure cortisol at 30 and 60 min, failure to rise adequately confirms insufficiency), ACTH level (HIGH in primary—adrenal damage, LOW in secondary/tertiary—pituitary/hypothalamus problem), Aldosterone (LOW in primary insufficiency), Renin (HIGH if aldosterone low), DHEA-S (often low), Comprehensive metabolic panel (electrolytes—hyponatremia, hyperkalemia in crisis), Blood glucose (hypoglycemia common), CBC (anemia, eosinophilia), TSH (rule out concurrent thyroid issues—common in autoimmune), 21-Hydroxylase antibodies (if primary suspected—autoimmune Addison's), MRI pituitary (if secondary suspected—pituitary tumor, damage), Medication history (chronic steroid use—iatrogenic most common)
