==Classification==
[['''Adrenal insufficiency''']] is classified based on the location of the [[pathology]] into:
*'''[[Primary adrenal insufficiency]]''' ([[Addison's disease]]).
*'''[[Secondary adrenal insufficiency]]'''.
*'''Tertiary [[adrenal insufficiency]]'''.
In [[Primary adrenal insufficiency]], the [[pathology]] lies in the [[adrenal glands]]. The most common cause of [[primary adrenal insufficiency]] is [[autoimmune adrenalitis]]. In [[secondary adrenal insufficiency]], the [[pathology]] lies in the [[pituitary gland]], whereas in [[tertiary adrenal insufficiency]] the [[pathology]] lies in the [[hypothalamus]]. The most common cause of [[tertiary adrenal insufficiency]] is chronic [[glucocorticoid]] therapy. Secondary and tertiary [[adrenal insufficiency]] together are categorised into central [[adrenal insufficiency]]. The following table summaries the causes of adrenal insufficiency.
