    overproduction of aldosterone hormone causing high blood pressure

    Hyperaldosteronism, also known as Primary Aldosteronism or Conn's Syndrome, is a condition where the adrenal glands produce too much aldosterone, a hormone that helps regulate blood pressure by controlling sodium and potassium levels. This overproduction can lead to high blood pressure, low potassium levels, and an increased risk of cardiovascular issues.
