hello,
thank you for writing in to hcm.
removal of adrenal glands can cause hormonal imbalance as it is a site for secretion of corticosteroid hormones, mineralocorticoids and sex hormones.
kindly consult an endocrinologist as some investigations like the level of the above mentioned hormones in the body through blood tests are important. deficiency of such hormones can be treated with right medications which will substitute the hormones and reduce the irritability and mood swings.
regards,
