Adrenal disorders happen when the adrenal glands — the two small organs above the kidneys — make too much or not enough of hormones called cortisol, adrenaline or aldosterone. These hormones are responsible for regulating things like blood pressure, blood sugar, metabolism, immunity (protects the body from disease), and stress response. 

Adrenal disorders in children include Addison’s disease, Cushing’s syndrome and congenital adrenal hyperplasia. While symptoms vary, a child may have weight gain, excessive hair growth, blood pressure issues or problems with sexual development. Some kids have tumors on the adrenal glands.
