What is Adrenal Cancer?

Adrenal Cancer

Adrenal cancer is a rare cancer that begins in the adrenal glands, located above each kidney. These glands produce essential hormones such as cortisol, aldosterone, and adrenaline. Adrenal cancer can cause hormonal imbalances leading to symptoms like high blood pressure, unexplained weight gain, diabetes, or hormonal disorders.

Common Symptoms & Conditions

  • Abdominal Pain or Fullness: Persistent pain or feeling of pressure in the abdomen or back.
  • Hormonal Imbalance: Symptoms like irregular periods, excess facial/body hair in women, or breast enlargement in men.
  • Weight Changes: Rapid, unexplained weight gain or loss.
  • High Blood Pressure & Diabetes: Caused by excess hormone secretion from adrenal tumors.
