All of a sudden we have tingles and we feel like we need to run away or stand up and fight. We have all experienced that sudden panic feeling and anxiety when something happens suddenly and unexpectedly and we get scared. The adrenal medulla is responsible for producing catecholamines, or adrenaline type hormones such as epinephrine and norepinephrine.
Each gland consists of a medulla (the center of the gland) which is surrounded by the cortex. They are triangular-shaped and about the size and color of a fortune cookie. We have two adrenal glands located on the top of both kidneys. The Adrenal Medulla and Cortex Produce Very Different Hormones. The adrenal medulla produces hormones involved in the fight-or-flight response (catecholamines, or adrenaline type hormones such as epinephrine and norepinephrine). The adrenal cortex produces hormones that controls sex (androgens, estrogens), salt balance in the blood (aldosterone), and sugar balance (cortisol).
