11
Q

Another easy way that I remember 11, 17, and 21 is to turn all of the 1’s into an upward arrow. The non-1 numbers will be downward. The first number is the mineralocorticoids/BP and the second number is the sex hormones. Potassium will be opposite the BP. So for example in 21def, Mineralocorticoids and BP will be down, sex hormones up, potassium up
