Perceived Discrimination and Health: A Meta-Analytic Review (2009, background): “However, as time passes and cortisol levels drop below normal, individuals may be more susceptible to other conditions, such as rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia, and allergic conditions (Heim et al., 2000; Raison & Miller, 2003).”
Psychobiological Responses to Social Self Threat: Functional or Detrimental? (2009, background): “The hyporesponsiveness of the HPA system to social threat in low-status individuals may reflect downregulation of this system in response to chronic exposure to social self threats; HPA hyporeactivity has also been observed under conditions of chronic stress experience, major depression and posttrau”
Chronic psychological stress and the regulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines: a glucocorticoid-resistance model. (2002, background): “The HPA axis habituates to stressful experience fairly rapidly, and, in some cases, cortisol secretion rebounds to below normal levels (Frankenhauser, 1975; Heim, Ehlert, & Hellhammer, 2000; Lundberg, 1980).”

Psychological Perspectives on Pathways Linking Socioeconomic Status and Physical Health (2011, background): “This is not surprising, given that both hypo- and hyper-secretion of cortisol have been connected with poor health (Heim et al. 2000).”
