English term or phrase: adrenal burnout
adrenal gland insufficiency, also referred to as "adrenal burnout"

Il Dizionario Zanichelli di Medicina e Biologia traduce "adrenal gland insufficiency" con insufficienza surrenalica, ma non riesco proprio a trovare un equivalente per la seconda denominazione.

agree  Elena Ghetti: direi esaurimento per burnout e insufficienza per insufficiency, che è un grado più leggero di burnout

(disturbo da) stress surrenalico


Explanation:
questa è la mia (dubbia ma non troppo) interpretazione: come credo tu sappia, le surrenali sono conivolte in prima persona (!?) nella risposta dell'organismo allo stress (più correttamente, agli stimoli o eventi stressanti o stressogeni, etc etc), e la parola burnout (al di là del famoso burnout degli psicologi ;) è spesso usata in senso di stress. credo quindi che in questo caso (quello di un termine un po' più alla mano per così dire rispetto alla nomenclatura della nosografia classica) potresti adottare qualcosa del genere.

notare anche che stress equivale in diversi sensi a esaurimento, che è molto vicino a insufficienza!

anzi, esaurimento surrenalico potrebbe essere un\'ottima opzione!
