In first aid, it says Addison's involves all 3 layers of adrenal cortex. yet pts don't show lack of sex characteristics like in 17 hydroxylase deficiency. Why is that?
Also First aid mentions secondary hyperaldosteronism can be caused by Cirrhosis, nephrotic syndrome, CHF. How do these mechanisms work? Especially for nephrotic syndrome and cirrhosis.. Thanks!!
