Low cortisol levels can be managed under a doctor's guidance by taking glucocorticoid medications, such as prednisone or methylprednisolone. However, if low cortisol levels persist despite medication, it is recommended to seek timely treatment at a正规 medical institution with the help of a qualified physician. Adequate rest should be ensured during the treatment period.
