Abstract
Ten healthy female volunteers received Danazol, 400 mg twice daily for 90 days. Adrenal function testing then showed a normal capacity of the gland to respond to stimulation with synthetic adrenocorticotrophic hormone, and a lack of suppression of central areas controlling adrenal function by a normal response to the metyrapone challenge.
