Cushing's syndrome most commonly affects adults, usually between the ages of 30 and 50, but it can occasionally affect children
High blood pressure, reddish stretch marks, abdominal
obesity, a round, red face, brittle bones, a fat bulge between the shoulders,
and fragile skin that heals slowly are just a few of the symptoms and
indicators of Cushing's syndrome. The two main reasons that induce Cushing's
syndrome are excessive cortisol-like medications like prednisone or tumours
that are generated as a result of excessive cortisol by the adrenal glands.
This condition may also be brought on by additional tumours connected to
hereditary diseases including Carney complex and multiple endocrine neoplasia
type 1. A combination of surgery, radiation, and/or chemotherapy can be used to
treat and cure the majority of cases.

Endogenous The Cushing's syndrome is uncommon. Endogenous
refers to a condition that is brought on by internal factors rather than
external factors like medication. There are varying estimates, ranging from
roughly 40 to 70 per million.
Although it can happen to youngsters, Cushing's syndrome
typically affects adults, typically between the ages of 30 and 50. About three
times as many women as men are afflicted by Cushing's syndrome. 2 Cushing's syndrome
may be the root cause in persons with type 2 diabetes, persistently high blood
glucose levels, and high blood pressure. Another risk factor for Cushing's
syndrome is taking drugs similar to cortisol called glucocorticoids. Exogenous
Cushing's syndrome is the term used to describe it. The number of Americans who
take glucocorticoids each year3—more than 10 million—and go on to develop
Cushing's syndrome is unknown.
