The tiny, triangular-shaped adrenal glands are found just above each kidney. They are referred to as suprarenal glands at times. Their function is to produce the hormones required to maintain the proper functioning of your immune system, metabolism, blood pressure, and stress reaction. The gland’s over or underproduction of particular chemicals leads to adrenal disorders. The adrenal glands generate the hormones hydrocortisone, adrenaline, and aldosterone.
