There are two adrenal glands, one on top of each kidney. They are responsible for producing a variety of hormones that regulate important bodily functions, including:
* Stress response: Adrenaline and cortisol are produced here, helping the body cope with stress.
* Blood pressure and electrolyte balance: Aldosterone regulates blood pressure and electrolyte balance.
* Sex hormones: The adrenal glands produce small amounts of sex hormones.
