The adrenal glands are two small glands located on top of the kidneys. Each gland has two parts: the outer adrenal cortex and the inner adrenal medulla. The adrenal cortex produces hormones that help regulate blood sugar levels, blood pressure, metabolism, and the body’s response to stress. The adrenal medulla produces hormones that help control the body’s fight-or-flight response.
