In this video, Masha Livhits, MD, an endocrine surgeon at the UCLA Endocrine Center, discusses the signs and symptoms of adrenal problems.

Located above the kidneys, the adrenal glands produce hormones that regulate different body functions. If there’s a mass or nodule in the adrenal gland, it could create too many hormones and cause problems.

High blood pressure is the most common sign of an adrenal problem. Other symptoms include weight gain, muscle weakness, mood swings, skin changes, irregular periods in women and increased thirst and urination.
