"The adrenal gland is the master organ of the endocrine system."
Then it seems to me then that this is the organ to care for if you want to maintain hormonal health. The article continues:
"Through their adaptation to stress mechanisms, the adrenal glands
direct the synthesis and flow of virtually all the other hormones. The adrenals
also have the ability to produce hormones that are normally made by other
glands. A particularly striking example of this is the hormone estrogen. After
menopause, when the ovaries reduce the production of estrogen and progesterone,
healthy adrenal glands can make up the difference and set the basis for a long
healthy life with little or no repercussions from the loss of ovarian function.
Impotency is not primarily a problem of testicular
dysfunction or testosterone deficiency. Rather, it involves an imbalance of the
entire hormonal axis–pituitary gland, adrenal glands, testicles and even the
thyroid gland. All of these glands are governed by the same feedback loops
between the brain and the body. They function as a group and have much to do
with determining our overall health. Impotency is not simply due to deficiency
of testosterone–or Viagra; the treatment of impotency must involve the
restoration of health. Science actually corroborates the practices of ancient
physicians, who treated impotency by restoring male vigor. This is best
accomplished by relieving emotional blocks, often old lingering impediments that
still stand in our way, and by taking steps to restore the health of the
adrenal gland."
For men, one health practioner recommended Super Miraforte by Life Extension Foundation.
"In addition to the diet and the work on soul connections and our relationships, I recommend several interventions that have proven useful in treating impotency. The first is the herbal extract of Tribulus terrestris, from Mediherb.

Tribulus is adaptogenic, meaning that it helps our bodies adapt to stress by improving adrenal hormonal production. A number of studies involving both animals and people indicate that the herb improves erectile function, decreases the latency period (that is the time between ejaculations), and increases the length of time that an erection can be sustained. It does not provide any testosterone, nor is it clear that it improves the ability of the testicles to produce testosterone. Rather, the herb seems to directly stimulate the adrenal glands to produce their hormonal products and therefore adapt to stress, even the stress of aging. Studies also indicate that tribulus improves cardiovascular endurance and slightly dilates the coronary arteries, thereby allowing improved oxygenation of the heart. The recommended dose is 1 tablet 3 times per day, for at least 6 months. Many men report an improvement in their potency during the third to fourth month of treatment.
In more severe cases, or with men who have lost overall
vitality in addition to sexual potency, I recommend Bacopa complex, a Mediherb preparation that combines schisandra (a liver herb) and Siberian ginseng (a
well-known adaptogenic herb) with bacopa (an adaptogenic herb that has a
specific effect on improving memory). Together these herbs help strengthen the
nervous system, liver and adrenal glands. The dose is 1 tablet 3-4 times per
day for at least 6 months.
Finally, to help restore the glandular health of the entire pituitary-adrenal-testicular-thyroid axis, I use the Standard Process preparation Symplex M, which contains the proto-morphogen extracts from each of these glands. In fact, it was the genius of Royal Lee who recognized, well before it was appreciated by normal science, that effective treatment of any of these glands requires treatment of the whole group or axis, rather than treatment of each in its own fiefdom. The dose is 1-2 tablets 3 times per day for 6 months."
