Q

Hormone Physiology Pathway

Thyroid/Adrenal/Overies

A
  • TRH (HypoThalamus) -> TSH (Pituitary) -> T3/4 (Thyroid gland)
  • CRH (HypoThalamus) ->ACTH (Pituitary) -> Cortisol (Adrenal gland)
  • GnRH (HypoThalamus) ->FSH, LH (Pituitary) -> Overies - Estrogen, Progesterone, Testes - Testosterone

Q

Primary adrenal insufficiency

2 type Cause/Sx/PE/Dx/Tx

A
  • Cause
    • Primary: autoimmune destory adrenal cortex (low cortisol)
    • Secondary: prolong steriod use
  • PE: hyperpigmentation
  • Lab: Hyponatremia, Hypoglycemia, Hyperkalemia
  • Dx: stimulate ACTH morning test (Normal - cortisol increase, None - addision)
    • If ACTH test is normal Try CRH
    • Give CRH
      • ACTH rise + low cortisol = Adrenal problem
      • ACTH low + low cortisol = pituitary problem
  • Tx: Glucocorticoid (Hydrocortisone) + Mineralocorticoid (Fludrocortisone)

Q

Cushing syndrome

2 cause/Sx/Dx/Tx

A
  • Cause
    • Cushing disease: pituitary tumor
    • Cushing syndrome: high cortisol (steroid use)
  • Sx: Central obesity
  • PE: Moon face, buffalow hump, extremity waste, purple striae
  • Dx
    • Initial test
      • Dexametasone test
      • Cortisol collecting (24 hr urine)
      • Salivary cortisol
    • Plasma ACTH check
      • ACTH low - adrenal problem
      • ACTH high - Pituitary adenoma or ectopic
        • High dose dexamethason supressing test (Dex supress ACTH which lead lower cortisol)
          • If test fail - ectopic
          • If test works - Pituitary adenoma
