Clinical observations suggest that prolonged treatment with megestrol can lead to Cushing-like symptoms, while withdrawal of prolonged treatment with megestrol may result in adrenal insufficiency. However, only little is known about the acute effects of megestrol on the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. As part of an endocrine study, we evaluated the acute effects of megestrol, hydrocortisone and placebo on morning cortisol and ACTH levels.
