over a long period of time. Cortisol is sometimes called
the “stress hormone” because it helps your body

Insomnia is a sleep disorder that is characterized by
difficulty falling and/or staying asleep.
Hyperparathyroidism (HPT) is the most common type
of parathyroid disease. In HPT, one or more glands are overactive.
As a result, the glands make too much PTH. This may result in too
much calcium in the blood—a condition called hypercalcemia.
Usually, a benign tumor on the gland causes HPT.
Addison's disease, also known as primary adrenal
insufficiency and hypocortisolism, is a long-term
endocrine disorder in which the adrenal glands do not
produce enough steroid hormones
Hashimoto's thyroiditis, also known as chronic
lymphocytic thyroiditis and Hashimoto's disease, is an
autoimmune disease in which the thyroid gland is gradually
