From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Cortisol is a corticosteroid (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corticosteroid) hormone (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hormone) or glucocorticoid (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glucocorticoid) produced by the adrenal cortex, that is part of the adrenal gland (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adrenal_gland) (in the zona fasciculata (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zona_fasciculata)

and the zona reticularis (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zona_reticularis) of the adrenal cortex (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adrenal_cortex)). It is usually referred to as the "stress hormone" as it is involved in response to stress (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress_%28medicine%29) and anxiety (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anxiety), controlled by CRH (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corticotro ... ng_hormone). It increases blood pressure (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_pressure) and blood sugar (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_sugar), and reduces immune responses. Various synthetic forms of cortisol are used to treat a variety of different illnesses. The most well-known of these is a natural metabolic intermediary of cortisol called hydrocortisone (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrocortisone). When first introduced as a treatment for rheumatoid arthritis (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rheumatoid_arthritis), hydrocortisone was referred to as Compound E

WOW that is something I would love to be added to my body. Stress hormone. Increases blood pressure, blood sugar and reduces immune response. While there is clearly a medical reason to adjust your cortisol levels to treat some very presific medical conditions. I fail to see how you would come to the concussion that it would cause castration effects.

Just want a would be pre-eunuch needs. Increase problems the can effect just about every organ in your body. You looking for stroke, heart attack, diabetes to just mention a few side effects. Anti androgen drug will effect far more testosterone. While not putting the body at more stress.
