What are Pituitary Disorders Commonly Seen in Gynecology?
Several pituitary disorders can affect reproductive health, including:
Pituitary adenomas: Benign tumors that can secrete excessive amounts of hormones, disrupting normal menstrual cycles and causing infertility. Hyperprolactinemia: Elevated levels of prolactin that can lead to amenorrhea (absence of menstruation) and galactorrhea (milk production unrelated to childbirth). Hypopituitarism: Insufficient hormone production that can result in irregular menstrual cycles, infertility, and other health issues.
