Summary about Pituitary Gland Disorders

Pituitary gland disorders occur when the pituitary gland overproduces or underproduces a particular hormone. Overproduction of hormones will cause hyperpituitarism whereas underproduction will lead to hypopituitarism. A pituitary tumor is the most common cause of these problems. The majority of pituitary tumors are benign (non-cancerous). However, a tumor that grows on or near the pituitary gland has the potential to cause:

  • Weight gain, stunted or excessive growth, high blood pressure, low sex drive, or mood changes are all symptoms of hormonal changes.
  • Vision problems or headaches by pressing against the pituitary gland, optic nerves, or brain tissue.
