What are the symptoms of hypopituitarism? How is this condition caused? Which hospital can diagnose this disease? Will hormone treatment cause significant harm to the body? Are there other treatment methods available?
Answers
Hypopituitarism can lead to various symptoms, including growth delay, delayed sexual development, irregular menstrual cycles, decreased libido, weight gain or loss. The cause may be a disease of the pituitary gland itself, tumors, trauma, or other issues affecting pituitary function. Diagnosis requires seeking assistance from a specialist, such as an endocrinologist. Treatment methods may include hormone replacement therapy, but a treatment plan should be tailored to the individual’s case by a doctor. For patients concerned about the side effects of hormone treatment, it is recommended to discuss other possible treatment options with their doctor.
