Adrenocorticotropic Hormone (ACTH) | Adrenal Gland

[@nathanniang7359]

You are absolutely incredible. I’m currently writing a paper on Secondary Adrenal Insufficiency, and I understood why ACTH was released, however, I never really grasped what it did and it’s role in how stress is managed. I don’t even know how, but you made me understand things I never had questions to! This really allows me to write about this condition in a whole new light; therefore, it allows me to understand the measures our bodies will go to in order to deal with stress, and how those measures can be related to high blood pressure and the fight-or-flight response (alongside others). You’re amazing, thank you.

Thank you so much! I'm trying to memorize the function of two hormones for the AP Biology exam, and you explained the causes and functions of ACTH so clearly and thoroughly!

[@Shasharinabina]

Everything I had a question about was answered in this one little video. Thank you, Dr. Mike!🙏💪🙏🙏🙌🙌

I already know some info about the adrenal gland but Dr Mike you explained it in a very cool way!!!

[@AustinHansen8]

Love it! Thanks for being direct and clear!

[@natalieyanez2373]

This was perfect i was always so confused about the function and how it was released. Also great on getting straight the point!

[@jenniferbecca3050]

Back in May, my ACTH was a 7, but blood cortisol was a 15. VA Endocrinologist didn’t want to do anything, because of my cortisol is fine. I have trouble falling asleep and would like to get off medication that I take to fall asleep. I want to be able to fall asleep on my own, again.

[@silverbackanimal7215]

Why can’t my doctor be like you , I was bombed with cortisone prednisone for years because I had ulcerative colitis until I was that sick the removed my bowel and stopped all the drugs I was on . Now it’s like I’m locked in flight and fight mode with adrenaline pumping through my body soon as I’m put under the slightest pressure. Even talking in front of someone I don’t know, sweat shakes dry mouth etc

[@vanessa0535]

when anxiety is induced, afoetnto singlas to ur nervous s system. stimulating the hump roth allis. it revives it and manages it with releases a hormone to the anterior purity.

[@loveizdanswer]

Hi there thanks for explaining so clearly. It is brilliant. I have a condition when it comes to any stress situation my heartbeat rises up very quickly and my blood pressure falls. Also when i take any kind of vitamin ( smal amount) or any minerals like magnesium my heartbeat raises and my blood pressure falls. I cannot take alcohol same issue. I cannot do exercise as my heart beat raises up quickly and i become fatigued very quickly. if i take saline water that when i feel a little normal My heartbeat is around 80/90 bpm. all the time what kind of problem i might have? What kind of doctor should i see. I have seen many non of them worked. I have never seen a neurologist. Should i consider seeing one? It would be great if i could get an advice. Thanks Thanks.

[@LN-wt9ft]

Sounds like your electrolyte/mineral balance is off. If you don’t have enough sodium, potassium, minerals in harmony then your heart cannot send electrical impulses to ❤️ properly. Try getting more potassium 4700mg/day from vegetables and fruits high in it AND add Pink Himalayan Salt to your diet, also making sole water and add 1tbsp daily to your beverages, it’s Pink Himalayan Salt dissolved into water, store in refrigerator. Take a container 🫙 Fill 1/4 w/PHS (pink salt) Fill remainder w/water If you improve then it’s a dietary deficiency causing your symptoms. Otherwise you need metabolic testing to see levels of sodium, potassium and minerals. Drinking too much plain water makes it much worse as that dilutes these things.

[@AKAGlenn]

I have some of the same problems. I’m being referred to an endocrinologist after one of my 24 hour urine labs came back abnormally high. Specifically free cortisol. I would ask your doctor to get some labs checked

[@34psychotic]

I don't understand why my 8am ACTH levels would be very high when my cortisol is high end of normal. I'm not afraid of needles, had a pleasant conversation about cats with the med lab tech and slept in on a vacation day before the blood draw so I'd say not too stressed.

[@jmc8076]

Check with MD who ordered your test who knows your med case history but quick online search: High ACTH and high cortisol levels: may mean Cushing's disease.

[@doaahamed9070]

Thank you , you were crystal

[@kyleetijamo460]

I think you can list yourself as part of the stimulus to the hypothalamus to release ACTH ✌

[@kareemalhousini4399]

dr. mike : I have frank here I have taken his abdominal organs me whose listening to the audio alone : 😮😮😮

[@dornemason4134]

My levels came back at 77.. and what I read is says Cushings but I have addison's disease, my adrenals hemorrhaged when I was pregnant

[@saucyurgranny1737]

U amaze me !!

[@palash3908]

[@ShelbyWalters-m5b]

I have no cortisol and no ACTH. I am getting a Pituitary Gland MRI and am on hydrocortisone and the next step dexometazone… I also have an emergency shot if needed.. what will they find since neither one is working??? Is it a tumor?? What’s next???

[@felishayoana]

this is so helpful,thankyou T-T

[@sn2084]

Hello Dr. I really need your help. I am a pituitary tumor patient. Its third time reccur😎ance. Had surgeries three times already, every year it comes back.. Now I need to reduce thia tumor naturally. Please suggest me, how can I reduce. My hormone levels are imbalance. Please reply.

[@TheMyisa]

Do you have Cushing’s? I have pituitary Cushing’s. I’m 2.5 yrs post op. My MRI is still clear but my symptoms are coming back.

[@TheOmengod]

I'm currently stuck in some state of fight or flight and it's terrifying. They put me on some medication to deal with it, but I need something to return my body back to normal. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

[@princessadora]

can severe PTSD cause cushings disease?

[@rcz2023]

Thank You

[@nabaa564]

Thank you doctor , l need some help please When i give the patient some anesthesia drug “ ketamine, pentothal ,etc “ quickly he have a skin allergy and my doctor told me this was from cortisol released by ACTH How does that happen ?

[@evangelistangelbowman3122]

This was excellent - definitions make all the difference in learning. My query is to what extent does liquorice affect ACTH production and does anything mitigate or boost it's effects to bring about steroid 'happiness'?! :D

[@samjmk3029]

@Dr Matt & Dr Mike Not sure if you would know, I don’t do it no more but when I had my first synacthen test a year ago but I smoked cannabis everyday for 5 years but quit 7 months ago would that affect synacthen test because of me basically doing it during a cannabis hangover and being a heavy user.

[@PeacefulWarrior1720]

doc, is it dehydroepiandrosterone or dihydro-epiandrosterone or dihydrotestosterone?

[@dawnhathaway5910]

CONFUSED... I have Hypothyroidism - but in ( 2015 ) I was researching conditions, and asked my Dr if I could have an Adrenal issue instead.... So he took a ACTH test.. Early in morning and Base line was flagged as high at 24.1.... 30 minutes later it only rose to 26.3 - 60 minutes later it was 29.3.... Didn't say or do anything but labled me as having Chronic Fatigue Syndrome... Is there any way you could clear up if this is correct / what I have?

[@jmc8076]

Second opinion from new MD who can see your medical chart and history. Don’t play around with issues like this.
