A patient with chronic stress experiences prolonged activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, leading to increased cortisol levels. This can result in:

  • Enhanced immune function.
  • Decreased blood glucose levels.
  • Impaired immune function and increased risk of infection.
  • Improved sleep patterns.
