   How does cortisol affect the body?How does cortisol affect the body?
 
Chronic stress can cause negative effects over time due to a mechanism of prolonged cortisol release, which causes desensitization of the HPA axis over time. An underlying mechanism that causes this has been hypothesized to be associated with the constant glucocorticoid release that depresses the HPA axis response over time, resulting in HPA axis dysregulation and cortisol resistance.
