Manifestations of Hypersecretion of Adrenal Sex Steroids in Man

  • Chapter
The Adrenocortical Hormones

Abstract

The adrenal cortex is believed to secrete steroids with androgenic and estrogenic activity or precursors which are transformed to androgenic or estrogenic substances outside the adrenal cortex. Howard and Migeon (1962) in Chapter 5 of Part 1 of this Volume have reviewed the evidence for the secretion of sex hormones by the normal adrenal cortex. Excessive secretion of androgens and estrogens, regardless of origin, results in precocious and exaggerated isosexual or heterosexual physical changes in the organism. This chapter is confined to the consideration of certain clinical syndromes in the human being which are attributed to adrenocortical disease and in which manifestations of feminization or masculinization occur. These manifestations may be isosexual, i.e. feminization of the female and masculinization of the male, or heterosexual, i.e. masculinization of the female and feminization of the male. As will become apparent, abnormalities of the adrenocortical secretion of a quantitative and, possibly, of a qualitative nature may be caused by disease of the adrenal gland itself or may be a secondary consequence of disease of other endocrine glands such as the pituitary or gonads.

This review was completed in 1964. The author wishes to thank Dr. Alfred M. Bongiovanni for reading this review and for his valuable suggestions.
