Treatment & Types of Adrenal Insufficiency in CVD, Delhi
Treatment involves lifelong hormone replacement therapy with corticosteroid medication to replace the body's missing cortisol, with doses carefully adjusted and often temporarily increased during illness, injury, or surgery to mimic the body's natural stress response.

Regular follow-up with an endocrinologist helps ensure hormone replacement remains appropriately dosed over time.
