adrenal exhaustion
Despite all of the above and of the above, adrenal fatigue syndrome is not an official clinical diagnosis. Because the symptoms, it is characterized, are considered to be very non-specific and are not accompanied, as a rule, hormonal disorders.
Therefore, when doctors talk about the depletion of adrenaline with the constant stress, they mean less fatigue glands themselves, as the emergence of resistance to the effects of hormones.
In contrast to the failure of the adrenal glands (which is diagnosed), their depletion - is an intermediate state between normality and pathology, at which necessarily should pay attention.
