What is the condition, resulting from hypersecretion of cortisol, whose clinical manifestations include "moon" facies, obesity of the trunk, osteoporosis, muscle wasting and weakness, and reduced resistance to infections?

Answer: Cushing Syndrome

Explanation:

Cushing Syndrome occurs when the body is exposed to high level of cortisol for a long time either externally (taken into the body from outside) or internally (secretion in excess of the hormone called cortisol by the body). It can also be called hypercortisolism.

The symptoms of Cushin Syndrome may vary depending on the severity of the excess cortisol secretion. Females may have irregular menstrual period due to this condition.

Asthma and arthritis patients who take corticosteroids and experiences the mentioned symptoms should seek medical attention for diagnosis.
